Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for December 13, 2021

Mee Maw only cares about the horse.

How much fun to select that very special tree and bring it home on a sleigh driven by a horse. What memories to tell you children, grand children, etc.

First thing that I’ll need is some snow. It’s rained about an inch and a half this last weekend.

Looks like a one-horse open sleigh. Jingle all they way!

Glad that Meemaw gave the horse some oats for a job well done in pulling the sleigh (and everything in it)!

I see dad survived the trip, but where’s the inner tube he rode on?

Jimbo seems no worse for wear after riding in the back

Ah-an unexpected opportunity to continue yesterday’s rant. perceptive, I think, made it look larger in Sunday’s strip, but judging from the diameter of the amputated trunk, the the tree was somewhere a quarter & a half century old. (might as well count the rings now that you killed it; at least the kid will learn some basic botany, and just maybe the “adults” will reflect) Yes it’s meant to be a warm &fuzzy comic but this barbaric death of a living thing ‘cause a little over a hundred years ago it became a fad (quite a story behind that), well, what’s left to say… Pretty sure this Jesus guy (who has born in early spring;another story) is down with this? anxiously awaiting all the hate mail.

It is already shedding needles.

Hey, look at the upside- it will be a short break from the Rabid Right screeaching about all the attacks on poor Donny as seems to the current thing in comments for-well- ever these days.

Just wait until MeeMaw takes that sleigh up onto the Interstate and opens the throttle …

The Gumbos are in their best aura to welcome the Christmas.
