Since I didn't make the trip from Chicago to Lebanon for Christmas, I decided to start my own Christmas tradition. After some internet research yesterday afternoon, I got up early this morning and drove to Dominican University in River Forest. There, about 30 of us put together 'meals' to be delivered to over 40 Chicago suburbs. 7500 meals in all. I met some new friends and was very humbled by this experience. On my way back to Oswego, I delivered 10 meals, toys and dry goods to a family right here in my own backyard. Their reactions were unforgettable. Merrry Christmas.
