21st December 2014 – Home alone for Christmas

After all the visitors since Thanksgiving, we were very appy to be spending Christmas and New Year in our own home. On Christmas Day we exchanged gifts. I had been looking for something truly local for Lisa, and I came up with a pendant and earings made from metal covered leaves from a local jeweller in the centre of Dahlonega. A touch of bling!

Lisa surprised me with a pair of tickets for a concert by one of my favourite singer/songwriters, Mary Fahl. We have front row seats in a small venue in Duluth, North Atlanta, in mid-April! We will have to make a night out of it, including staying in a hotel in Duluth.

I have also taken the opportunity to do a bit of updating on this website, as I expect we will get more traffic when the details of what we are up to gets a little more publicity in a home design magazine. More on that soon.

So, all in all, it has been a quiet but enjoyable time here. We didn’t get snowed in, no disasters of any sort, just relaxation. But things should be heating up come the New Year.
