Windy, rainy, sleety (is that a word?), but still beautiful on Orcas Island. The village at night lights up like one huge Christmas tree. The nativity scene in front of the Community Church reminds us to not take Christ out of Christmas. Shopping at the wonderful little gift shops beats Walmart any day. Most of the items are locally made or at least made in the USA. Not that I never buy other goods, but I would like to think there could be equality in the market place. Besides, what could be better than actually knowing the creator of that beautiful hat and meeting the sheep that the wool came from?
I love the cards we are receiving that have small villages, snow...cozy written all over it and without words says, "Peace unto you."
