Sources tell me that it's butt-ass cold in MT right now, with no snow.

Here's to either precip or warmer days, TKings.

Happy Holidays.

hey there say, pocoloco1 ....

as to this quote of your:

Is it better to reveal your identity as Secret Santa,or remain anonymous?

sooner or later, it may get out, as to who the secret santa is--due to mail stamps, country, state, etc, or, if folks know each other's return of address.... (which many times is safer to make sure is on package, as, things can go wrong and it may need be send back--better safe than sorry)...

and like lolli said, she can't very well stay secret, :))

so it is kind of an UP IN THE AIR type thing, as it floats and lands, in many a place, :))

:) sure is nice thoughtful and a good adventure in friendships, though, even if the secret gets out... :)

so, it is up to you, later, how you want it to go,
:)

I really look forward to this every year. It's fun to send a gift I hope they like. It's fun to go back and review their posts to get a feel for just the right gift. It's really such a great event. Thanks again Secret Santa Strider!

Hello neebee:
Well, I’m not Sherlock Holmes. Last year I received a really cool FISH chalk bag from a Taco in Colorado. To this day i have no idea who was my benefactor.
The mystery adds to the fun.

My present is running a wee bit late due to a problem with delivery. Guess I'll have to send the main thing in the new year.

Thanks Strider.

hey there say, pocoloco! yep, it sure does, say, thanks for sharing about the neat chalk bag...

oh my, as to colorado, one would sure need a "sherlock" on that trail, for colorado givers, too:

so many many climbing folks live there, :))

*edit:
say, johntp... i think one or two, have been late, so don't worry...
some folks send "on the way notes" or else they let strider send an email...

i had to do that, last year, remember :)
mine was nearly late but it all worked out perfect, at the last minutes...

Here's a better one.

ps If you need me, holler - I'll likely be in the car. And I didn't even take the photo. A certain "Dodo" did - could be symbolic.

hey there say, tami... is that hand-signal for sign language... what is going on, on that shirt? can't see the whole thing...

folks ARE starting to get more used to seeing sign language on shirts, etc...

was just curious, :)

say, as to the picture, was that your good side, ;)
or, was the OTHER one, ;)

nice to see you having fun, from the little that i know, you are ONE VERY HARD worker... :)

Tami has been instructed to post a photo of herself when she opens her package on Monday. She should like it, but doesn't (yet) know what it is, or the identity of the giver.
