Merry Christmas to all....:santahat:

Nothing says Christmas like the smell of a Honey-baked Ham....picked ours up this morning and had to ride all the way home with the truck cab filled with that aroma....(insert Homer Simpson drool here)....
 
I miss those Holiday smells...
Clean crisp air of Montana.
The dinner, the baking, as mentioned.
The fire stove as you toss in another stick of Larch you just split out in the wood shed.
The freshly cut tree and how wonderful the aroma of a pine tree filled the house.
All those things I'll never get to smell again unfortunately. :santahat:


This year I get to smell the inside of a government office building while I work for the Holidays. :isadizzy:
(Then again I am getting Holiday pay which sorta smells sweet come paycheck time) :icon_lol:
