Home Alone On Christmas Day

After pre-Christmas get togethers with both of my sons and their families and before the post-Christmas brunch with Andy's family, we found ourselves alone on Christmas Day. A couple from church were nice enough to invite us to Christmas dinner but they came down with the flu so, again, we were on our own.

We had plenty of food from the visit with my son from North Carolina so that was not a problem. Facing the day with nothing much to do, we decided to take a ride in the country to visit Andy's childhood home place and old stomping grounds. It is now a historic place called "The Twin Chimneys." We took pictures and he told me of his ancestors who had been in the Revolutionary War. It was a mild December day and we thoroughly enjoyed our day trip.

On Christmas Day, as we all know, most business' are closed but we did find one convenience store when "nature called."

Not wanting to just use the restroom without purchasing something, I devised a game.
