But then, you are my Michigan friend, who also loves this amazing piece of earth. I do my best as a 'self-appointed ambassador', easy since I love this state, wherever I am ... from Detroit to the Soo!<BR/><BR/>And yes, trying times, indeed. My entire family's future resides within the heartbeat of America ... automotive (wish 'the press' portrayed 'factual facts' ... too many deaf ears). Your powerful words, 'proud, generous and optimistic', are perfect. I would so love our state to pull out of this horrific mess, and shine as the example ... "Yes, we can!" <BR/><BR/>Christmas Blessings, dear Ann, and after hitting a raw nerve, let's break out that vodka and toast ... "Happy New Year"!joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569378877717221045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-2717501737107259852008-12-20T13:08:00.000-05:002008-12-20T13:08:00.000-05:00Bless your dear heart Joey for showing our beautif...Bless your dear heart Joey for showing our beautiful Michigan's wonderful land and water scapes throughout the year. <BR/>Our poor State has been through some trying times this year and it seems as if the rest of the country has turned their backs on her. But Michiganders are proud, generous and optimistic people, we will surely get through all of this.<BR/>God Bless you, Joey, your family and all of Michigan.<BR/>Merry Christmas and best wishes for a wonderful and peaceful New Year. <BR/>Ann<BR/><BR/>Now let's break out that vodka;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-50279779239550031662008-12-20T11:19:00.000-05:002008-12-20T11:19:00.000-05:00Ah, so to get through the winter snow, you just ma...Ah, so to get through the winter snow, you just make a good martini? :-)<BR/><BR/>Wonderful!<BR/>CameronF Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14558874651743241988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-71732824384125388142008-12-20T10:40:00.000-05:002008-12-20T10:40:00.000-05:00Hi Kerri ~ it certainly does feel like Christmas, ...Hi Kerri ~ it certainly does feel like Christmas, doesn't it?

Seems to have followed us home from the lake (again hit with another 'lollapalooza' ... should be wonderful when we return between the holidays ... I'm waxing my cross-country skis!)<BR/> <BR/>Hi Connie ~ seems like a good portion of the country will have a postcard pretty 'White Christmas'. Happy Holidays!<BR/> <BR/>Vodka comes in more flavors than one can possibly imagine, Kim! Seems to be 'thee' hip drink for today ... a little goes a l-o-n-g way but fun to sip!<BR/><BR/>Hi Tyra ~ we're 'socked in' with snow! Left the lake in a snowstorm only to arrive home to embrace another! (Photos shot from inside) Enjoy these 2 fun winter cocktails (praying you get your Christmas snow, dear friend)!joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569378877717221045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-71333528790802773402008-12-20T00:53:00.000-05:002008-12-20T00:53:00.000-05:00I do love cocktails and both yours sound like a te...I do love cocktails and both yours sound like a terrific after dinner 'dessert cocktail'.
