A “Dickens” of a Christmas at the Glenmore House – 8 December 2024

Hear yea, hear yea. Welcome to the Glenmore House, home of Ginna and Richard Claus Kelly for a Dickens of an ESU Christmas Party.

 

Is this classic, or what? T’is the season. The ladies were all festively dressed.

And the food, the hot pot pie, cheeses, salami, and the endless pastries and sweets, many prepared by Ginna and the other ladies, were sans pareil. 

The happiness of the season – look at the faces.

And the Carol sing could not have been more fun. Richard outdid himself with ornaments for each of the Twelve Days of Christmas. Slung around one’s neck, when it was your day, you sang out. Too much fun. Mrs. Kelly Claus treated us with singing Silent Night, en Français. 

And the President’s baritone-base, for O Holy Night, could apparently be heard from one end of the house to the other. No one is saying it was Pavaroti’esque, but it could be heard.
