Day 4: Winter Project

It seems after Halloween all preparation heads straight for the Christmas season!  That’s fine with me, I love Christmas, it’s my favorite holiday!  I live in southeastern Kentucky and it is a unique place to live.  I’ve heard a lot of terms used to describe the folks that live down here, probably the most often one used is hillbilly!  Now because I am part of the group, I don’t take offense!  Actually my neighbors are authentic, genuine, friendly, helpful, mostly God fearing, country loving people.  If someone has a house fire they will knock each other down rushing to help, support and provide for their unfortunate neighbor!  If you move in the neighborhood you can count on a visit with food and an offer of help to unload the moving van.  If that describes a Hillbilly, I’m proud to be one!

When it comes to decorating of Christmas, a lot of folks go all out!  This guy has a pick-up truck in his yard and he faithfully gusseys (mountain term), it up every Christmas to show his Joy!

Hope it makes you smile, I think that is what he had in mind!

Blessings and joy,

the pilgrim
