1. December by George Winston (always the first played of the season, usually the song "Thanksgiving" on Thanksgiving...
2. Soundtrack to a Charlie Brown Christmas by Vince Guaraldi (always brings to mind Linus' speech to Charlie Brown on what Christmas is about...never ceases to bring a tear to this pagan's eye)
3. Jethro Tull Christmas Album by Jethro Tull (a delightful mix of modern and remixed classics, with a couple of excellent pagan nods)
4. A Midnight Clear by John Nilson (pleasant piano versions of holiday standards..)
5. A Fresh Aire Christmas by Mannheim Steamroller (very haunting version of the Holly and the Ivy always makes my eyes tear)

And Marla came home :) She rides like a dream, though it'll take some getting used to as I'm generally used to much smaller bikes. And I hadn't actually ridden a regular manual transmission motorcycle in about 10 years so the first couple stops and starts were a little jerky, but all in all it had pretty much come back by the time I got home.
