> Warmest wishes to all for a wonderful holiday and peace on earth.

I go along with Howard with wishing everyone the best!

As you get older Christmas time is full of memories of Christmas past! Some 
good and some not so good!
 My Mother was born at Christmas and died very young at Christmas time. The 
memories of kids at Christmas and their excitement will always put a smile 
on your face. Now its Grandkids (nine) and soon to be great grandkids.

The most sentimental time of year for me is around New Years. Some good 
memories and some not so good. I wonder at how fast the year has gone. Think 
of my comrades funerals I  attended over the last year.  I call family & 
friends I have not spoke with in awhile to wish happy Holidays. its nice to 
get Christmas cards but phone calls are cheap these days. I still prefer the 
phone to all forms of communication other than a visit.

The world we live in is truly a mysterious place as Dick Marron pointed out. 
Einstein pondered the vastness of space and Man's creation of time. Our 
everyday world is similar to the bee hive. We live each day and go through 
our routines without really thinking about the vastness of it all. New bees 
emerge and old bees are flown twenty feet from the hive and dumped at the 
end of life. Today the days become longer. For the bees the new year has 
started. Eggs will be laid in strong hives today.

Sincerely,
Bob Harrison
