Thanks, Mary and Nancy.
The work needs to be done with several days in a row of decent weather, so the next work day would be Monday, if that next storm slips out to sea. Otherwise, Tuesday through Friday looks pretty good for a yurt raising with the building crew.

It will be a sea change of a Christmas for a second year; no way to buy and wrap gifts, or cook special family foods, or even decorate a tree or the camper. We miss that part of our Christmas, yet there will be a candlelight service with church friends and a few hours with family. We know the difference between the material things that don't really matter and our celebratory Christmas worship with this year's gift of life and a new home-to-be.

We are mindful of many blessings and grateful for friends and generous strangers. Thank you.
