Northern Virginia has been blanketed with a quiet and deep snow with some 16 to 20 inches by nightfall. It put me in the mood to work up Vince Guaraldi’s classic, Christmas Time Is Here, from an arrangement by Jason Vieaux. It’s not a flawless performance, but good enough for a snowy day. You can see the snow falling through the windows of my home study. It has been a long time since we’ve had a White Christmas in the Washington area. I’m loving it.

Just perfect! It goes nicely with the photo “slide show” on the page, too.
Blessed Advent

What a treat, Rick, thank you!
Nice! I remember you working through this tune a couple of years ago. You’ve certainly done your homework. You nailed it. Absolutely beautiful!!!! It’s Advent! Thanks for that.
Well done! Looking forward to sharing more time with you and your wonderful family now that we are on this side of the pond….
Have a wonderful Christmas and hope to see you soon. Ed arrives on the 22nd, the “southern segment” on the 24th.
Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year.

Dear Rick . . . and Debbie,
Rick, that was just lovely! May you and your family enjoy every minute of the wonder of Christmas and the warmth of God’s love!

Thanks Rick. I can’t help thinking about A Charlie Brown Christmas when I hear this tune. It makes me smile.
Thank you for this lovely gift. It makes me slow down on the internet in order to listen to the whole thing, and now I will get back to what is important! Happy New Year.
That was beautiful, thank you!
