The Boys in Chandler

I am staying in the beautiful home of Ike and Freddie (fictional names for real humans). The motif here is Christmas. Over the next week, I will record bits of it. We are having Christmas dinner here. Ross, Em, and I. Maybe, Zack. The boys above are delightful. They’re so affectionate. I don’t think they need pseudonyms. Sheldon, Taco, and Peanut.

It is December. I am in Arizona. The temperature is 77 degrees and I have taken my first clothing optional jacuzzi. It’s 38 in Saint Paul today but it will be in the teens when I arrive next week. Yikes! I am wearing snow pants.

Two on the lap and one under the tree. Life is good. I am grateful for this day and the opportunity to see beloveds.
