In which it's almost time to kick off the annual Gift of Stories

Since the first full year of writing this blog, 

I have posted stories and poems to share during the holiday season.  

Usually the stories are folk tales, often they are obscure and from far corners of the earth.  

Always, I encourage you to take them with you on your travels, forward them to friends and relations, re-tell them when they come to mind.

This year, the stories will post each day from Solstice to New Year's.  Also, to mark the end of the decade--and more than ten years of blogging--I've included photos from the early time of Haiku Farm.  

Some of you readers might even remember the olden days!

Happy Holidays, all y'all.
