The best Christmas I ever had was when DH and I (we were both in the Coast Guard stationed on ships 2000 miles apart) met up in Maine where I was stationed and spent Christmas day hiking thru falling snow and stopping for dinner to a cute little chinese restaurant. Then walking back after dark to our motel room (I lived aboard the ship) with a tiny tree we decorated with popcorn thru the fresh snow with an unbelievably clear star filled sky over head and all the houses decorated. It was great! We had no presents for each other, and we had no family near by, but it was perfect. Highly recommend a no fuss, easy holiday alone with just the sweetie (and kids) for everyone at least once in their lifetime.Originally Posted by Mighty Frugal
