Hellooo, Santa! So sorry to seem neglectful! I was super busy planning the Getaway, and then got sick after it (Better, now, thanks...). That's no excuse, I realize, but perhaps it will do as an explanation for my lack of participation here.

I love your cute rhymes -- unfortunately I'm not very good at that sort of thing, so this sorry prose will have to do.

As for hints, well -- um -- I DO like surprises, and my Mom always told me it wasn't polite to actually ASK for stuff... But I always enjoy hearing Mudcatters' music and learning about their part of the world. The hints I posted in previous years are still valid, for whatever they're worth.

And in case you're wondering, I HAVE been good -- even if a bit slow! And I do appreciate patience!

Your humble Santee,
Nancy
