Just a note: if I tried to play the glasses like they did we would have a lot of broken glasses with my clumsy hands!

Yelp winter is here to, -2 here on the way to work tonight. At least it will be a white Christmas, then I'll be ready for the snow to go away.

I can only comprehend those temperatures in the abstract, I've literally only seen them in walk-in freezers.

After growing up in the Middle East, the entire continental US is cold for me. I find California too cold from November through March, and I have no interest in living anywhere colder.

(For me, anything under 70 is cold, and anything under 60 is too cold for me to be outdoors for longer than 5 minutes at a time... I can maybe push that lower limit down to the low 50s if I'm exercising and in direct sunlight.)

LOVE ALL THESE videos - Thanx everyone! 

It's taken me a while to listen to all of them - GlassDuo is pretty remarkable. 😊 

I just found out there's going to be a series of Candlelight Concerts in Detroit, different Winter performances through March - one is tonight... wish I was able to attend. 

 

When I was growing up in Dearborn, the First United Methodist Church, would have a beautiful Christmas Concert of Hand Bells, but I haven't made it back there since our Daughter was little. 

...it wasn't quite as big as this extravaganza.

George Winston album December, the 1st track is  called “Thanksgiving”- the other songs are listed alongside it on the YouTube site below.

I had a cassette of this in the 80’s – played it a lot.  It makes me think of snow in the Northeast (the nice part of it—not the shoveling, ice-scraping, slipping-and-falling-down part smile ).

I finally got a chance to listen to this entire album. 

Really beautiful!

Not only did I LOVE Thanksgiving, but really fell in love with the 3 parts of Night and also Peace

Thanks for sharing this! 

...snow is supposed to be gone the end of the week, guess we were lucky to have a white Christmas.
