Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Happy and Healthy New Year to Everyone

12/24/2009

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Happy and Healthy New Year to Everyone 4With the holiday rush over and done I want to thank everyone for their support and wish all of you a happy and healthy holiday season and new year. It's been a tough year for lots and lots of people and I hope next year is better all around.

Last Tuesday FedEx didn't pick up on time and Chrystil went downstairs to babysit our shipments because the elevator closes at 5:00. At 5:40 I took over and spent the next 40 minutes on the phone wondering where the truck was in a standing in a dark freezing lobby. It was very boring and very cold. A nice young lady who works in the neighborhood stopped by and offered me a French polish, which I declined, and I amused myself instead by taking the picture you see above. It's the scene in front of our building, looking towards the harbor, a lonely desolate night. The scene does offer hope, for deep in the distance, on this icy but clear evening, you can see the Statue of Liberty lit up, with her torch held high, welcoming all to America and its promises of the future. I took the photo with my phone so it's kind of lo-res but here is a blow up the of part were you can see the statue in the distance. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Happy and Healthy New Year to Everyone 5.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Happy and Healthy New Year To All.

Joel and everyone at Tools for Working Wood.
