And you too, dear.

Edited to correct a hasty, speech-to-text post.

(Was still cooking.)

6. President Jimmy keeps going and going and going and going and going...

(Picture from 2018 - he was 94, I believe.)

[Duppers]

42. Just like the energizer bunny. 😁

[Joinfortmill]

7. God love them.

[Duppers]

8. I have it hanging on my refrigerator. I can't say enough good things about the man

I so admire him.

[NBachers]

9. This warms my heart

10. Habitat store

https://thehabitatstore.merchorders.com/
Before I was struck down with the cancer, I used to purchase various gifts from the Habibtat for Humanity to give to family. I still have the raincoat I bought for myself and my siblings many years ago.
I see they have some new selections.

24. When I lived in Tucson

I wanted to work on houses for them. But, they require you to work in the retail store first. I did my time in retail and restaurant service for 10 years. I’m not doing that anymore. I just wanted to paint houses. Their loss.

[Duppers]

34. I've made donations to Habibtat for Humanity and

To his foundation and bet that's why I get cards and emails from them.

Merry Christmas, lambchopp.

11. Wow - President Jimmy Carter ....what a talent. n/t

[niyad]

12. Love it.

[ShazzieB]

13. Beautiful!

This is purely subjective, but I LOVE the colors! I say "subjective," because the sky and the grass are my personal favorite colors, but the other colors he chose to use all harmonize with them (and each other) perfectly. It's a very peaceful scene, as some have said, and very soothing to look at. Nice work, Jimmy! 😊

14. He's the enegizer bunny of Presidents. An ex-submariner, too. I need to shut up about my ...

... being too old.

[rsdsharp]

15. Kind of reminds me of this:

https://m.

I’m old enough to remember the show; even had the Learn to Draw kit. (I never did.)

[Duppers]

35. I'm old enough to remember too. 😁😉

[Jarqui]

16. Wonderful

Thanks for posting.
I did not know.
Looked it up.
I saw he has handcrafted woodwork and many more paintings and poems.

He's about as close to perfect as a human being can get.
Very uplifting to see this.

[halfulglas]

20. I used to have a small book about letters written to President Carter by children.

It was so sweet and gentle. A fairly small book and I don't know what happened to it. They were letters sent to him when he was still in the White House.

[Duppers]

36. Although I don't own it,...

I remember that book.

Merry Christmas.

[Rhiannon12866]

17. K&R! I'd forgotten that he painted, and yes, I got one of those

[masmdu]

18. Maybry Mill on Blue Ridge Pwky? Mile post 176

[Duppers]

37. That's the one!

It's a beautiful drive, isn't it?

My mother and her second husband camped at almost every campground on and near the Parkway. Hubby & I live on the coast of Virginia but we much prefer the mountains.

19. Such a Class Act

Since the 1970s Jimmy Carter has been an example of what a U.S. president should be—before, during, and after.

A man of steady character, not a hint of scandal. Like Obama.

[Stuart G]

23. Yes, I got to say this again: Because of his order on seat belts, that they should be in all cars by

1984. (in 1979), Carter saved thousands of lives a year. If you don't believe, look at this chart at this link:

Vehicle fatality rate per year in United States. Conclusion: Carter cared so much about people in the United States, that he actually saved people's lives by ordering seat belts in cars in 79. (and future lives too)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_vehicle_fatality_rate_in_U.S._by_year

So, do you know anyone who was saved by a seat belt that they were wearing?...About the time that Carter ordered this,
states began to order people to wear them when they are driving. All people front and back...

..............And guess what? ...People put them on because we know that they save lives...RESULT..........

..............Please look at the chart and you will see how great Jimmie Carter is.

[progressoid]

21. Yep. We got one in the mail too. Very nice.

[nightwing1240]

22. Recieved this in the mail as well

Proud donor to his charity for years, not a lot but what I can afford. Jimmy Carter is everything that a good person should be or aspire to be. This is a man, President Carter, that lives his faith.

[Duppers]

38. We trust the Carter Foundation and

Habitat for Humanity and always donate money and anything most folks would put in a garage sale to Habitat.

[nightwing1240]

43. That is fantastic!

Very good for you! Great causes both.

[Higherarky]

25. N

Niiiiiiiice!

[musclecar6]

26. Jimmy Carter

Is a good guy who tried to do good with his life. Like Barack Obama, Joe Biden and their wonderful wives.

[Duppers]

39. Indeed!

[DownriverDem]

27. Got mine too

I give to them every year.

[Blue Owl]

28. Meanwhile Dump couldn't even figure out the colors on an American flag

[Duppers]

40. 🥴 Yep.

🎄

[panader0]

29. His style reminds me of Gramma Moses. Very cool Mr President.

[Duppers]

41. You're right.

Hope you've had a good Christmas.
