The moods of the Christmas season are many and wondrous. They speak of joy and of hope, of laughter and of love, of warmth and of peace on earth, good will to all people. These moods, and the other emotions of this holiday week, are familiar to many, each mood beautifully expressed and each one touched with a special magic of the season.

With that, we wish all our friends on- and off-Island happy holidays.
