From
our Home to yours
|
My family and I hope you have a wonderful, fun-filled, safe and joyous holiday season and we wish you all the very best for 2005. The above picture is our home all lit up for the Christmas season. We live in the beautiful mountain valley in the East Kootenays of British Columbia just outside of Invermere. Thank you for dropping by my Man and Mollusc site and I hope you continue to enjoy it throughout another year. Avril
