Florida is indeed an interesting & great place to be, but Christmas time is one of those uncanny times! Not only have we had unseasonably warm weather (even for US here -- it's also been true for many states & countries). But our local peacocks, who live at a neighbor's home, came by for a visit (as they do every so often; but in December that seemed a bit... well, strange!).

By the way, the van in the photo is on loan to me, by a very gracious family from Idlewild Baptist Church. The wife just had a bone marrow transplant, in another state, so is away for awhile for treatment. (If you're reading this, maybe you could pray for Mary.)
