When our son and family moved to Williamsburg, we all decided there had to be a colonial Christmas. On Christmas Eve morning, we woke to ice crystals on every tree and wire. It was a breathtaking sight. Then the power went out. No heat, no phone, and no lights!
The church was lovely that evening illuminated with candles. As we drove home, the heavy wires were gleaming in the moonlight, still frosted and drooping heavily.
We all slept on the floor in front of the fireplace (in our long johns under our pj's), pan roasted the turkey on the stovetop, and lit a candle to go to the bathroom. It was wonderful! We spent four days playing board games with the grandchildren. It's not often grandparents who live 3,000 miles away get to spend that much uninterrupted time with teenagers. Neighbors visited and enjoyed cookies and hot chocolate or mulled wine. How much more colonial could it have been? It was absolutely wonderful. One of the best. - Ginie Mains from Downey, California.
