The Haul...

As usual, Santa (aka Mr. C) was too nice to me. Besides the aforementioned iPod, I, my bro, and sis-in-law all received a bounty of cool gifts from the Cracker Barrel Old Country Store. Witness:

and that's just what I got. My bro and sis-in-law got things like a yo-yo, blooming flower on a stick, and an arcade-style baseball game. All I can figure is Santa got all nostalgic for his childhood and wished some of it on us. The three of us loved these gifts! : )

Yes, I now own a harmonica. I am now all set to join the ranks of harp players like Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen, and Barney Fife! Yes, Barney Fife. Bonus points if you can remember the episode where Barney whips out his harp.

A real Beaver Cleaver Christmas...wow!
