Ruth, Dan and Mathilda Tanner, at Dan's first cousin (once removed) Jason's home, Christmas 2000. We didn't splurge on gifts in 2000. Instead we vacationed on Saint John, US Virgin Islands for the week between Christmas and New Year. You can share some views with us via our "E-tour" link. See our favorite 1999 Christmas gifts.
