From East Anglia I send Season's Greetings coupled with best wishes for a joyful holiday to my rail "friends" everywhere. Let us hope that 2009 turns out to be a better year than 2008.

And if anyone would like a White Christmas, they are welcome to my backyard! No need to go to Montana to snowshoe this Christmas - we can use the snowshoes to get to the mailbox.

It might be fun if we all went to Essex, Montana, and whooped it up at the Izaak Walton Inn for Christmas. With luck we might even get stuck there for a couple of extra days.

Happy Holidays to all. I would like to go to the Isaac Walton Inn one Christmas. Snow for us is something we visit for playtime, then go home (But maybe not on our timeframe....)

I used to live in Wisc. There was a white Christmas here in MN, too. I'll be getting out the snowshoes and the Sorel boots, just to go to the store. Then again, that does not bother al that much. Here's hoping that everyone reading this enjoyed the holidays they chose to celebrate.

Holiday Wishes to all as well. Soon I hope to post a brief report on taking me three year-old daughter on her first Amtrak ride last Sunday.
Good times.
