Hope that all is well with everyone. Given that this time of year, with all the holidays, is so full of fun and good times, I am basically sending out a compilation of Christmas websites that I have gathered together from various emails and personal contacts. I am stating forthrightly that I have checked NONE of these URLs for connectivity; there are just too many of them, and I don't have that kind of time. Given that, I am sure that the majority of these sites are accessible and ready to provide you and your family (or patrons) with some great holiday cheer. Most are geared towards K-12, but this time of year brings out the kid in all of us, so have fun!!! [Editors' Note: The links have all been checked and were working as of 11/29/00.]
