Dear Friends:

What a beautiful Barn Show we had this past weekend! The Lord gave me my taste of snow in the Valley before I leave for Florida. I love to experience the magic of the snow on the mountains and trees! So many people found their way to the Barn Show on Friday when I didn't think anyone would venture out; but, the sun came out and melted the ice on the roads, and all was well! Members of the Moss on the James Chapter of the P. Buckley Moss Society even made it Sunday morning for our annual breakfast together. What fun! Good food with good friends!

It was very nice to see so many of my authorized dealers this past week and weekend. They came from near and not-so-near to bring their customers' prints for me to sign in time for Christmas. I loved seeing them all and missed a few "regulars" who didn't make it.

Everyone at The Barn Sunday afternoon experienced a special treat when the Stewart Middle School Honors Choir arrived and entertained us with Christmas carols from around the world. What a wonderful group of kids!

This past Tuesday I was most honored when Delegate Steve Landes came to the Museum to present me with a framed copy of House Joint Resolution No. 738, commending me for supporting the goals and work of the P. Buckley Moss Foundation for Children's Education. Delegate Landes represents the 25th District in the Virginia House of Delegates, which includes the City of Waynesboro and a portion of Albemarle, Augusta, and Rockingham Counties.

I am very grateful to have this recognition from the Virginia General Assembly, but it wouldn't be possible without the support of you, the collectors, and the dedication of the Foundation's Board of Directors and staff. I thank each and every one of you!

Even though the December Barn Show is over, the Christmas spirit is still in full force at the Museum, which is planning more festive activities for this coming weekend. Storyteller Susan Blanton will return on Saturday, December 17, at 1:00 p.m. to entertain everyone with her delightful stories for young and old. Also, the Valley Children's Choral Society will come to the Museum to sing Christmas carols. These programs, which are sponsored by the P. Buckley Moss Foundation for Children's Education, are free to the public, and the first fifty children will receive a free gift! To sign up, please call the Museum at 1-800-343-8643 or 540-949-6473.

Love,
Pat
