Believe it or not — we got a Christmas card or two this weekend. The holiday season is upon us!

It seems people took the opportunity over the weekend to put up their holiday decorations and put away their fall decor. The weather was so cooperative with the temps up to 40° to 50°.

Take a drive through Ipswich (and I bet the same is true in Roscoe and Hosmer) to check out the colorful displays.

My wife was hinting over the weekend that she could use some help. Warmer weather is predicted later this week. We’ll see...

Christmas concerts begin Thursday with Ipswich’s elementary students. Sunday the Medora Christmas Concert is planned in Aberdeen. We know that will be a good show. Then holiday music continues for Ipswich and Edmunds Central students on Thursday, Dec. 8.
