Since all Scots and Irish at one time both spoke Gaelic I am sending wishes on Christmas Eve. I believe that all of those in the To: section I am related to! and those in the Cc: section I may be related to, or are my friends, and my special genealogy (Internet) friends. May God bless each and everyone of you who are special to me! Nollaig Shona Duit agus Beannachtaí na Nollag ort ( A Happy and Blessed Christmas to you).Siochain leat (peace be with you)! It is -9C/16F (with wind chill it is -14C/25F) and blowing snow here in Traverse City, Michigan - the Midwest - 45th degree parallel - U.S.A. - Northern Hemisphere.
