Here are the promised photos of LHT in his Santa hat. Sue Harmon suggested I get Leonard the Santa hat because, she said, he deserved it for all the work he does cleaning snow off of the walks and drives of all the people in the neighborhood and beyond. He has been helping Milt by doing his walks because Milt has a bad back.
A funny story: one of our neighbors, Sharon Butterfield, teaches school. For three or four years, Dad has kept her walks clear so that when she gets home, she does not have to do the work. She finally caught him in the act. She had not known who it was. She sent him a thank you note which arrived a couple of days ago. She said there were days when she just dreaded getting home because it had snowed so much that she just knew she would be hours clearing walks. Then it would be done. What a relief it was but she was never certain that it would keep being done. So now that she knows who has been doing it, she is certain that she can relax because she will know that it will be done.

Isn't she the one who lives in the "old Olsen home?" What a nice thing for Dad to do. I used to do that when we lived in St. Peters. I have been doing it here, until our snowblower broke. I will have to tell you sometime about the snowblower, 18 inches of snow, and two Sunday newspapers.
Love the hat! It suits you well!
