Christmas on Q-Island

Christmas on Q-Island

"Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love."

- Hamilton W. Mabie

Christmas is filled with special joys,
And the very best of all
Is contemplating those dear to us,
And the memories we recall.

We often think at Christmas time
Of people, affectionately,
And we realize how blessed we are

To be part of this loving Q-Family!

Christmas is a special time of the year with many traditions - One of them being, the Christmas Bonfire – in memory of tillietoiler/Mary (the founder of the Bonfire).

We come together to decorate Mary’s tree, share stories, memories, and toss unsmoked cigarettes! Take a few moments, sit back and enjoy reading some of these wonderful Christmas bonfires.!
