Christmas (almost) in Krautland.

Drawing the last few puff off the butt end of a smoke in front of my grandfather’s house on a misty cold evening last week, I saw a white Porsche whistle down the Bahnhofstrasse over the wet asphalt stinging my face with freezing spray. I looked up the foggy road where the tanks of the 99th Infantry Division had charged in from the same direction long ago, and the bells of the little church where my folks were married after the war began to sound. Drizzle had turned to snow, and the flakes dissolved as they hit the pavement. Light from the church windows across the road lit the damp air, and just then I heard the choir practice warming up Christmas carols. It was like the horror of the last grubby century had melted away. The voices of the choir took me to another time entirely.

The carols sounded kinda like this:

"The Bells Never Ring so Sweet” (as they do on Christmas day.)

Merry Christmas, all.
