A Mini-Gem-Fest; Christmas 2025

Thanks to the Nashville section of the family, we had a chance to gather with loved ones at Mount Snow over in Vermont. Some of the crowd went skiing, some played games and put together puzzles. Lots of relaxed time, good meals, and creating memories.

Buds and I had a room to ourselves, and Yessa got to share in the bunk room experience.

The house was beautiful with sunny, open spaces designed for visiting, puzzling, and there was even a poker room, that we made into a puzzle room.

That's a poker table.
Snow bunnies ready to go swooshing.

Buddie's mom found his high school state wrestling tournament championship jacket and brought it along.

I love Ray, but also notice the corduroy jacket I'm wearing. It says "1987-88 State Champion."

Even though it was only for a short time, it was really good to be together.

Some were off skiing, some had left the day before, but this was a large portion of the crowd.
