Sunday morning sunrise on our front yard

Milo and I took our walk on a very cold (7 degrees) morning.  As we returned home the sun crept above the horizon.  There was a layer of fog covering the plains below.  The clouds were breaking around us as yesterday storm moved east.  Milo told me to hurry home and grab the camera.  It was a great photo opportunity.  I agreed.

We ran into the girls later in the morning.  The were gathering for a hike down the Highline road.  They all had on their snow shoes and very, very warm clothing.  It looked like they were ready for an exciting morning.

I ordered a Christmas present for my FIL from Vicky.  I can't say what it is because my FIL has been know to read my journal.  I know it will be great.  Go check out Vicky's site.

Work is going well.  I forgot how much I enjoy working retail.  The map store is open 10-6 so I am not working any 12 hour days.

The band played for Janice's Christmas party last Friday night.  It was a lot of fun.  It's easy to play for a group when people start dancing on the third song.

I hope everybody is enjoying the holiday season.  Milo says "Woof, Woof", meaning Merry Christmas to all.

Best wishes to all,

David

Dave,

Nice picture!  While we do not have anything that pretty here, or that cold, we are enjoying unseasonably warm temperatures.  It is difficult for me to get into the Christmas Spirit with all this warm weather.  I guess I will compensate by taking some time out on the lake in the boat.  You remember that, right?

You sound happy with your new job and goings on.  Keep smiling!
