Ok, new story out in time for the holidays! Hope it gets you in the mood for the season.

I'm about halfway through writing it, and most of my stories end up being around 10 parts, so I'm guessing the same will be for this one. I plan on posting about once every other day. I have the plot outlined, but maybe some feedback will help keep me on task to finish writing it.
Almost forgot! This story is in partial response to Tank's
challenge ... it has since taken on a life of it's own... and thanks Tank for encouraging me to continue with it!!
