♫ Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O’er the fields we go
Laughing all the way…♫
Words and music by James Lord Pierpont.
At this time of the year I would like to wish each and everyone the Best of the Holiday Season and a Happy New Year. This upcoming year will be a challenging one and as such I hope for Peace, Hope and Happiness for all.
As has become my tradition, at this time as my gift to you I offer a few minutes of reflection. I hope this slide show and music (please turn your speakers on!) brings to you a time of calm and joy. The music is of course, Jingle Bells by James Lord Pierpont and is performed by the Argyle Alumni Choir, Argyle Senior Secondary School, North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, Frances Roberts, Director. Used with permission.
This is also a bit of an experiment in hosted slide shows. You can select two different versions – one is on SlideShare – the other is on YouTube.
I find the images much sharper on SlideShare – but the music/picture synchronization is a bit jerky and odd. YouTube doesn’t have the sync problem, but the images are much less sharp.

Best wishes for a safe holiday filled with warmth, comfort and good cheer!
(Thanks to Steve Matthews for technical assistance in hosting the slide show).

David:
Jo-Anne and Lauren keep you watching the more important things in life. You are so fortunate to take their lead. We, your colleagues and friends, are blessed each Christmas to be able to share in your year well spent.
May you and your family and friends continue to enrich your surroundings this New Year – this very challenging New Year.
