CHRISTMAS PRESENTS

It may or may not be the most wonderful time of the year but it is certainly one of the busiest.  Since today is Sunday, perhaps you have time to relax, put your feet up, and center yourself before the rush of the next few days.  Let me give a chance to do that with any one (or all) of these holiday offerings:


Peter, Paul and Mary -- The Holiday Concert from 1988.  This one has my favorite Christmas song ("I Wonder as I Wander") as well as Kitty's ("O Come, O Come Emmanuel") and much more wonderful music.  (1:28:34)
