Lots of chit chat here on Stauffer Avenue. Dennis’ daughter Sue and granddaughter Taylor were here for the afternoon from Silver Bay . . . the “Up Nort” people. Brr. Sue said the winds were horrible. They will be spending the weekend catching up with more of the Curry clan. Sandy stopped in on her way home from New Ulm where she is a nurse in the clinic. I think we pretty well got everything and everybody caught up with the latest and greatest news. Tomorrow evening granddaughter Sadie (Sandy’s daughter) will be hosting a late Curry Christmas. Dennis and I are opting out this year. It begins at five in the afternoon and I know that it will be a very late night for the young’ens. Dennis and I will be tucked in safe and sound here on Stauffer. We sent along all the gifts that we had for the five Curry kids, the eight grandchildren and the six greatgrands. Let’s here it for our favorite gift to give . . . $2.00 bills. Everyone appreciates some extra cash after the holidays. It is going to be a another very cold, cold night. Dennis and I are very content and comfy right here at home.
