I was so anxious to see my sister Betty. I reveled in washing dishes for Aunt Annie because she had running water. She gave me a beautiful cup with a rectangle type handle. Here is Anna's 1998 Christmas letter. Dear Family and friends, I really enjoy the lights around.
Icicles seem to be very popular.
I don't drive many places at night. Some people are discouraged in putting out lights because vandals have stolen many. This Wednesday a bus load is going up to Portland to tour the Pittock mansion, go to the spaghetti factory for dinner and then tour the lights. We did it last year too except we only saw the lights outside the mansion. For Thanksgiving I took the train up to Sedro Worlley, WA and spent the weekend with Ted and his family.
