| A good time was had by all, weather was a bit nippy (-20o) but Jim is used to this, seeing as his birthday is in January. He continues to amaze us all with his public service, sense of humor and "never give up" attitude. | Becky matched her clothing to Marilyn and Jim's artwork! | Marilyn and Becky ski/snowshoe in honor of Jim! |
