A Christmas Three Long Ago

As a little boy the time between Christmas Eve and the
Epiphany (January 6) when all boys and girls in good standing received the real
gifts (toys) courtesy of Gaspar, Melchior & Balthazar was interminable.
Time stood still. Now, before I know it it is Epiphany when traditionally in
our family I deal with that melancholic task of taking down the Christmas Tree.
Today, Boxing Day I got curious and looked in my files
under Christmas. What I found you see here. What is astounding to me is that I
took the photographs in November 2002 which for me seemed like it was almost
yesterday. And so it goes with time and my speeding train will eventually get
to the destination station with only one passenger, me.
