This is the 2017 Christmas letter set to video.
This year's video captures the ups & downs, as well as some hits & near misses. There is also some bitter irony in the tunes saved for the eventual return back to Virginia, which itself wasn't certain for a long time.
The added vignette in the middle is a tribute to Brian, whom we lost way too soon.
Video editing done with Cyberlink Power Director 14.
