Today's photos are more of our "Toast to 2012", as they keep rolling in.

The first one is from Robert Koepel and was taken on US41, as they were leaving the Keweenaw on the way back to the Chicago area, where his family now lives. What a beautiful way to end a visit "home" and begin the journey back to where they reside.

The second photo is Steve Haagen's Christmas tree. Now the actual tree is trimmed and lit up in Eagle River, WI, but it comes from the Keweenaw! While they were here visiting a few weeks back, they cut this tree from their property and transported it back to Wisconsin. It's certainly a wonderful reminder of the U.P., I'd say!

Wherever you're celebrating this holy day, we wish you Buon Natale, Feliz Navidad, Joyeux Noel, Fröhliche Weihnachten, Hyvaa joulua and....

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I Wish for You...

"Comfort on difficult days, Smiles when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,
Laughter to kiss your lips,
Sunsets to warm your heart,
Gentle hugs when spirits sag,
Friendships to brighten your being,
Beauty for your eyes to see,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Faith so that you can believe,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
And love to complete your life.
And if you can't have all that...
Then I wish you enough chocolate
To make it through the tough times...."

We've had a number of comments and emails about the photo of Phoenix Church on the Pasty Cam home page Christmas Day, including the following from KCHS President Virginia Jamison:

Phoenix Church
The picture of the Phoenix Church that Charlie posted on the Pasty.net home page is the result of a huge labor of love by many KCHS volunteers starting with Jack and Louise Marta spending two days sorting and preparing the lights. Ann Gasperich arranged for Mike Sprenger and his son, Geremy, to install new wires after she and Tim and Jack Marta and Jeff Kalcich dug the trenches. Dan Barton, Doug Shubert, Tom Hall and Sheriff Ron Lahti put up the lights. Tom and Ron have spent many hours since then making sure that they light up, that the fuses on the cords get fixed and the timers are adjusted properly. Thanks to all of them for the love they put into wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.

And thanks to Charlie for posting it for all to see.

Ginny

Thank you, Ginny, and I would like to add our gratitude to Elizabeth Anderson, who captured this beautiful sight, and Larry Malloy who shared it on KeweenawHistory.org
