Yes, I live about 10 minutes drive from the beach. Not far at all.
I can't imagine having a winter Christmas. Probably the same as you having a summer Christmas. Hot weather, salads, cold meats etc.

Something like that. LOL!
On some of our Christmas cards, you get pictures of Santa in his red shorts, white singlet and flipflops standing on the beach with a cool drink. LOL. I personally don't like Santa cards, but it's just slightly different from what you'd get over there.

In the last few years I have met people who head south for the winter. I will admit it is tempting. Kansas has all four seasons, but at times I would like to live in warm weather year round.

Any burglars come around, and we'd better have the bubble wrap handy. I fall over all by myself, let alone with help.

Oh, and Gary, if you ever use the eyelipsees (y'know, where you end a sentance with the ...'s), be sure to ues four dots. If you use the correct three, it drives Shar-Mar batty!  ROFLOL!
Uhm, y'all are what drives me batty.
BUT!!! Speaking of ellipses (that's plural for ellipsis . . . as I'm sure y'all are already aware), I was thinking about you the other day, Mr. LN. A client / friend and I were almost getting into an argument over the proper usage of those dots. He had brought me a project and didn't like how I had corrected his ellipses (placement, number of dots, etc.).
He later called me up and told me that he had found out I was right. Well, gee, imagine that! 
'Morning, Gary!
'Morning y'all!

Hey there SharMar! Must be the time of night. I'm confused about what an ellipsis is. I think I know, but I'll have to look more closely later.

Trish, an ellipsis is a series of 3 dots separating words, most often used to denote an omission of words (such as in a quote). Also, used as seques to connect similar thoughts.
The most-absolutely-correct number of dots to use is 3 . . . not 4, like a certain Ben Bugsy around here likes to do.
And technically, the dots do not have spaces between them (word...word)
But for emphasis and artistic freedom here in the threads . . . I like to put a space between each dot. 
I guess it was a couple of years ago that Ben and I "had it out" here in the forums about this wonderful piece of punctuation.  
Oh the wonderful memories one can acquire by hanging out here!

Good afternoon Ben, Shar-Mar and Trish,
I just got home from church and a womens basketball game, so I am checking the forums.
Ben, I don't know for sure how I broke my little toe because I don't remember it happening. The story is , I had a roomate (there were 8 of us total) who awoke one morning about 5:30 am. He went to the kitchen and saw my stereo in the back yard just outside the door. He ran back to the bedrooma and woke us up. I must have jammed my foot againt the door frame, but I don's remember it.
We all ran around looking for what was taken and trying to find the buglers (not too bright, I know). The roomate who had gotten up grabbed a machette (we had named the house Machette Manor) and ran outside wearing only gym shorts and pajama tops and went up to some poor woman waiting for a bus on the corner and asked if she had seen any body unusual.
We surmized that my roomate alarm clock scared the buglers off while they were in the house and they left before they were finished. All they got away with was $7.00 cash.
Anyway after about an hour of the excitement, I realized that my little toe was throbbing in pain.

Hi Pam,
That was a dicey neighborhood to live in. Another time two of my roomates were robbed in the street. Again no one was hurt.

We've had a few burglars in our time. Thankfully nothing really happened. No damage or anything.
Hey Gary. Hi everybody. How are you all doing today?

My house was robbed once, when I was 7. But we weren't home and no one was hurt. I think we were the only house in the neighborhood that was hit
