[nfb-talk] Blind Doctors and Christmas Lights

Sun Dec 5 00:22:26 UTC 2010

Peter, hope you get over that flu.  It sounds like your home is 
beautiful.  I love Christmas also.  It is my favorite time of the 
year.  I love giving gifts and seeing the reactions I get.  Wish I 
could send you some of our snow.
