An Ode to Yule (and a Throwback Thursday)

"... As I walked out on Yuletide,

The winter winds blew cold

I saw the Winter King a-standing,

Grey and grim and old

His cloak was pulled around Him,

A child was in His hand

And He sang, “Blessed Be and Blessed Be

   And Blessed Be again!"

   ~  Joe Bethancourt, "Blessed Be Again"

 A very OLD pic of my childhood friend, Dave and I at Flanagan's Pub back in 1988 ... (you may remember him from last Sunday's birthday celebration post with my hubby?)

A pic my hubby took while camping with friends back in 1999 ... (Okay, so Mother Theresa I am not!)

Horseback riding taken by my sister Willow ~ circa 1996

HAVE A GREAT THURSDAY EVERYONE!
