Oh my gosh, did you see the snow? It is just too early for that! (Snow Delivery was supposed to come for Christmas and get returned to sender in January. Now, wouldn't that be nice?) Soon, you will be able to read the Christmas Edition of the Courier-Gazette. Donna works so hard on that. (I haven't heard from her in days.) My son left for Florida on Wednesday. I hope he brings some warm weather home. Beth, Ralph and Eileen are just keeping it to themselves, trying to make us come down and pick it up. Long Acre Farm sends greetings. Although they are officially closed for the season, they extend an invitation to come visit online anytime. They have a NEW online Gift Section and Product Order Form, featuring some of the Maze Merchandise and Down Home Fudge for the Holidays, plus other unique farm gifts. AND don't forget the Kettle Korn, now available over the winter. They'll process your order the old-fashioned way, with a friendly phone call and timely shipping. Order your selection of farm gifts and goodies by December 3 to make sure you get them before Christmas. They were honored with a repeat airing on the CBS Sunday Morning Show, on October 24. Some of you have asked for T-shirts and/or catalogs. While they don't print a catalog, you can visit the online Gift Section for all available items. OTHER NEWS: The two Cooperstown Get-Away Packages have been given away. Congratulations to Kristen D. of Rochester, and Belinda M. of Sodus.

Send along an e-mail and let them know what you've been up to I'm sure they enjoy getting news from home and if you could send pictures through their e-mail - of the kids, season changes or even of the Thanksgiving turkey, they would be greatly appreciated. Have a great week. Stay warm.
