I thought it was amazing the let me share a gift with everyone that rides it!

Thanks for all you do surferguy!!!

Locke welcome to our party glad you joined!
Well, in fairness as much as I suck at gift-giving, I got lucky. My assigned guy wanted nothing but donations to animal charities.

It just so happens that my sister is a Veterinary technician so she pointed me in the direction of a few different ones that she likes and trusts, that one just happened to be a favourite of the Backlunds as well.

There'll be more. I'm trying to emulate the exemplary work of a certain poster done last year.

I know I suck, but I'm trying.

Also, I gotta say...I'm thoroughly pleased with what my Santa got me...a Stormtrooper helmet filled with booze?

I'm celebrating like an Ewok when they blew up the Death Star II! Yeeeeahhhh!!!



Yub yub!!

Locke stop stating you suck at this. This is what your person wanted above all. You don’t suck, you are crushing this. Enough with self doubt!

My secret santa put in way more work and effort than I have thus far. I've gotta step my game up still!

Christmas Eve came fast this year

That’s at least 5 of us that are bourbon drinkers in Secret Santa. The Angels envy is finished in port barrels so that makes it a good choice for old fashioned’s. Enjoy!

On this day of Christmas, a Secret Santa placed a donation to the Alberta Animal Rescue Society on behalf of his appointed beneficiary.

Merry Christmas to all Mankind and their Best Friends.

Either is good. My kids are home all day Friday and everyone is home by 330pm either day. If we’re not there, feel free to put on the deck in the back yard. - no biggy!

I can't wait to try it!

However...Identify yourself!
As I look back at this, I think we all need to see those ice balls made (bottom left corner) which appear to be in the pattern of the Deathstar! 😛

Now that you pointed it out that is super cool. As a geek and whiskey drinker I think I need that!
