Christmas at Redbug Ranch Ends Quietly After Busy Stretch
Mont Belvieu resident Jane Howard Lee writes from Redbug Ranch about winding down after a busy spell with visitors from Baytown and Houston. She recalls a Christmas fish fry, deer hunting in the Hill Country, and a coincidental meeting about land nearby. She plans a return for help during a possible January surgery and signs off wishing readers happy holidays.
