Here in South Florida it was intolerably cold 58 degrees F this morning, with high winds and rain as a cold front arrived. It is due to get even colder tomorrow.

A few days ago I started a posting with an obituary for her and many photos from her eventful life. I probably won't post any more this year. I wish you and your loved ones (with two and four legs) a Merry Christmas and a good start to a year that hopefully will be better than 2020 in many ways!<br />All the best, hugs, <br />Traude<br />https://rostrose.blogspot.com/2020/12/farewell-hildekind.htmlRostrosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15901976103765887360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3122370918663203885.post-64799538706408170822020-12-23T00:46:54.690-06:002020-12-23T00:46:54.690-06:00Such heart-warming images and writing flowing with...Such heart-warming images and writing flowing with festive cheer.
