Sorry, but it got WAY too cold for my Southern California blood. Yes, I've become quite bad about that in my old age. Of course, I can always blame all the metal in my leg that gets cold and doesn't heat back up.

Dearest Ann and John -- Thanks very much for thinking of us. My mom will be visiting us from Maryland so we will have to decline. Generous souls that you are, you would probably have invited her to join the party but at 82, she prefers quieter venues. But thanks again for including us! We'll make a donation to The Other Place in gratitude.

Thanks for the invite. Wish we were closer so we could be there.
Our love to you both.

Ann and John,
Sorry we can't attend but fully support your charity donation cause during these times. As CEO of one of Idaho's oldest charities for children, this year will be difficult and the need for services is expected to increase due to the times we are in. Good for you for supporting the needs in this way. Best to you both.
Stewart and Debbie
