Each year, as a wonderful courtesy, our Orcas Christian School sends student carolers out to the Senior Citizens who have difficulty traveling and those who are housebound.
They bring home-baked cookies colorfully wrapped in Christmas colors, and sing carols to us, which we greatly appreciate. This is the third year that they have made their way clear out to Doe Bay to bring the Christmas Spirit to me and to this household.
And it really means a lot to this old Dad. Makes life worth living.
