Yo carlette...your is on the way (mailed Saturday). Sorry for the delay. To give you a hint on what you will find, please see the story below:

A very old Christmas eve tradition in Germany was to hide a ------ [ornament] deep in the branches of the family Christmas Tree. The parents hung the ------ last after all the other ornaments were in place. In the morning they knew the most observant child would receive an extra gift from St. Nicholas. The first adult who finds the ------ traditionally gets good luck for the whole year.

Ha ha...kinda goes along with the dude in the speedo above.

I'm very embarrassed to say that for one of the pass the camera projects, the camera ended up in my possession, but completely smashed and did not make it onto the next destination... :-(

However, I did send Ewker's ornament--did you get it?

I'd be in for a Bandana exchange. Good idea Mapes!

GnM, it's no big deal. I continue to be surprised you all aren't bored w/ornaments and clamoring for alcohol or chocolate instead!

Ewker-- did you ever get your ornament? I sent it out the week before Christmas by regular mail... Unfortunately, I didn't put a tracking number on it....

Thanks for the ornament 32oz! Bet ya'll can't guess what it looked like. Yup, an empty 32oz bottle of gatorade! The cool thing is that it was filled up with a bunch of yummy treats to keep my butt moving on the trail. (maybe he is trying to tell me somethin'...) The Power Beans definately helped out on that 16 miler a couple of days ago.

Anybody know where I can upload a picture and post it here? The TT pictures feature is kaput and I don't think webshots allows you to link to a picture uploaded there.

We exchanged e-mails way back when, but I wanted to thank CreekDancer here for her ornament. I think I want to hang out by a river with that laid back but glisteny-handsome, outdoorsy, fishin' Santa! Oh and the card was funny as hell, too! Thanks! :-)
