Happy Holidays 2021!!

 Geez, that was a fast year! An uneven year. Parts went lightning fast, and other parts were slow and painful. But overall, it flew by. Just a quick post to wish you Happy Holidays, and to thank you for reading my adventures, and a special thanks to those who take the time to comment every week. Your comments are like gasoline in the engine that keep things humming along!



The photos this week are mostly from the archives, and I'm hoping they convey the Christmas spirit (along with some pretty skies).
 


Thanks for stopping by. Happy Holidays!!

  4. Dearest Peter,
    Your top photo still looks oh so magical...
    Excellent writing as one feels part of the hike itself, so well documented and shared with your readers!
    Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
    Indeed, 2021 went past way too fast. A good sign though.
    Boredom never has been in our life, as I often said, I know how to write it in seven languages yet don't know how it feels.
    Hugs,
