And a Merry Xmas to you also Harry. Still Xmas Eve up here but it sure doesn't feel like it with the local temps hovering around 75 F. :)

Merry Christmas everyone. Hope the new year will find you all well.

@Dave That celebration sounds good. Good thing for you I'm a little too far away to crash the party.

Hi Sly..... - happy holiday season to you & family! :)

Paddlefish caviar this year which is like the Caspian Sea sturgeon of the past - :( - sparkler for the night a 2006 Ravines Brut from New York State (shown below) - and entertainment was the 1983 reunion concert of the Everly Brothers at Albert Hall in London - still in great form! Both now in several HOFs (Wiki quote below) - Phil passed away recently - Susan was singing along w/ virtually every song - a blast from our past! Dave

he Everly Brothers were American country-influenced rock and roll singers, known for steel-string guitar and close harmony singing. Isaac Donald "Don" Everly (born February 1, 1937) and Phillip "Phil" Everly (January 19, 1939 – January 3, 2014) were elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986 and the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2001.
