Starting the year off sharing a YouTube video with Bill’s “The Morning After Christmas” along with some of our Spokane parks winter photography. We found this recording on an old cd about a year ago along with other songs we thought were long lost to a computer crash. It’s short, punchy, and fun. Enjoy! With wishes for Peace in 2024!
