Dear Nancy, Oh how delighted I was to read about what the Olcott United Methodist Church did this evening with the horse drawn wagon carrying the carolers! Now THAT'S the true spirit of Christmas! But I have to ask you a question in front of the whole list. Did the joy of such an experience bring at least one tear to your eye? Oh, please tell me that it did--I shed buckets of tears when the Youngstown fire engine went by last night!! However, I had a great big smile on my face at the same time! How about you?

Dear Vee, Oh yes, MANY tears. I was overwhelmed to say the least. I never will forget the sound of the sleigh bells and the glorious voices of the carolers. Now if only my camera had been in my coat pocket !! Nancy Happy Holidays to all... ----- From: "Vee L.
