There will be some phone calls and some email greetings, but mostly it will be a day like any other.  But it is Christmas in Florida and it is serene. The picture on the right is a photo I took this morning looking out the side window next to the sofa.  I had my first cup of coffee while watching dawn break over the palm trees.  Beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>A few hours later, when the dogs decided it was time to rise and pee, I took them for a walk.  And found a family, in the RV park for the weekend, opening gifts on the patio.  I liked that.  No pine tree, but why not have the gifts under a palm tree?  I think it is more likely that Christ was born near palm trees than pine trees.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I hope your Christmas is as serene as ours.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4458\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/1225160845_smaller.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4458\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4458\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/1225160845_smaller-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Opening gifts on the patio\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/1225160845_smaller-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/1225160845_smaller-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/1225160845_smaller-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/1225160845_smaller-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/1225160845_smaller-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/1225160845_smaller.jpg 772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4458\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Opening gifts on the patio<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christmas 2016 is going to be very quiet for us &#8211; nobody to visit, nobody coming to visit.
