A Christmas rose in the garden yesterday-- never mind the black spot. It's going to be a green and wet holiday in Seattle, with heavy snow in the mountains.
We're postponing our Twisp trip until next week when conditions improve (and we can get in the driveway!) This isn't the first or last time, and it's actually nice to spread out the celebrations. Christmas is a season. We're glad to be home tomorrow and my brother will pop by for a visit.
"Lo, how a rose e'er blooming" is an English translation of a heavenly old German carol called "Es is ein ros Entsprungen."
For Christmas Eve, here's a heavenly performance by Linda Ronstadt, from her "A Merry Little Christmas" album released in 2000. Wishing you peace and joy.
