An Olde Tyme Christmas at the San Juan Island Historical Museum…

Uncle Jimmy Chafee & niece Sienna Rose Bartlett enjoyed the swirl of colors & light & song at The Historical Museum on Thursday night....
Thursday night at the Museum was awesome – there was a lot to like!
There was plenty of food (the chili & Ivar’s clam chowder was a hit, and the cookies were all nearly gone when the evening was over, and the apple cider, too!) and the music just kept coming, with the Island Chordsmen & then Mary & Phyllis, and I got to play & do a singalong with a wonderful group of 7-part harmony carolers at the end of the night…it was great. Thanks to director Kevin Loftus, his very involved board, and all the volunteers who made it all happen!
Here’s are some photos by Update photographer Tamara Weaver of happy faces, among the dozens that were there.
Maury & Molly Liebman get into the spirit of things...
People sing along with the old familiar Christmas songs, led by Phyllis Adelman (organ) and Mary Doerflein (violin). It was beautiful....
My carolers...in action. Thanks, you guys - you sounded awesome!
I get a chance to visit with Conrad (left) and Fred Yockers (right); meanwhile, Colin & his daughter Sailor enjoy the evening.

Thanks for mostly giving last names in this article. Even though I have been living here 42 years, there are still folks I don’t know or can’t hook face to full name and your folksy call everyone by their first name doesn’t make that better.
