Merry Christmas, Rod!
Merry Christmas Rod! I thought of you a few days ago. My friend and her mom got stuck in Portland when her flight got cancelled twice. She was telling me how icy the roads were. Anyways, I hope you and your family stay warm and safe.
Hope you had a great Christmas Rod!

Merry Christmas!
