December 26, 1962 The Ogden Nash Christmas, The Last Postcard of '62 and The Saturday Evening Post Year in Review


















On the return home from Christmas in Richland:



NOTE:  While searching for a top music hit of Christmas, 1962, I was surprised to learn about this familiar carol.  Read its interesting history here:  http://www.nytimes.com/2002/12/01/nyregion/noel-regney-songwriter-known-for-do-you-hear-what-i-hear-is-dead-at-80.html



Thank you for reading another year of letters!

    Hi MerrylI I thought of you as I was posting the poem and I'm glad you enjoyed it. I enjoyed that part too. I always thought that Nash must have loved playing with words.

    I hope that your winter is gentle this year! Thanks so much for writing.
