Day 12.353: Exile #2's Sunday Column #279

It will come as a surprise to no one, I’m sure, that our local supermarket has already put out its display of Valentine’s Day candy. Nor, that our neighbors have taken down their Christmas decorations, or that many will be tossing their trees onto a New Years Eve bonfire in a nearby town. We, on the other hand are determined to squeeze every last drop out of our Christmas tree, and are determined to hang on to it until twelfth night, even though only the bottom third of our tree lights are still functional!



After that, we’ve heard a rumor that a local goat farm is accepting donations. Presumably goats are partial to a bit of balsam fir.
