Thank you for tuning into my fourth Back Over My Shoulder podcast! Each week during this Holiday Season, I’ve been podcasting one of my Holiday Season “Over My Shoulder” columns, originally published in The Post-Star of Glens Falls, NY. This podcast is "Christmas unveils thoughts of two lives." In it, I share Christmas memories associated with my “second life,” which began on a snowy December evening, when I met my wife to be. I hope my memories will help you to “Keep the Season Bright” and keep your hopes up for the new year, when we beat this pandemic and get back to happy and productive lives.

     The column that I am reading in this episode can be found in my new book, Over My Shoulder 3, the third volume of “Over My Shoulder” columns. It's available on Battenkill Books, Cambridge, NY 12816; (518) 677-2515; Chapman Museum, Glens Falls, NY 12801; (518) 793-2826; Northshire Bookstore Saratoga, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866; (518) 682-4200 Warren County Historical Society, Queensbury, NY 12804; (518) 743-0734;and Amazon.com in print and digital formats.

     Happy Holidays to you and yours! Keep your mask on, your spirits up, and stay safe!
