Looks like Kathy and Nick will be going to Moscow soon after all! Val isn’t planning on visiting them but who knows… We have the tree up in our living room, dripping snow as A and V work on their homework. Went to church and saw Amahl and the N.V. with Edna today – very well done (Len Foli was in the orchestra!). See you next week.
Love, Tim
