Happy New Year everyone. We are on the downward side of our winter trip. The November weather was spectacular, December was OK but not as good as usual. We are hoping that Jan. and Feb. will be better.

We have also decided that 4 months is too long, so we will go back to 2 months next year (if we get to do this again)

We had a wonderful Christmas with Dee and her family. I am totally shopped out! No one can shop for and find bargains like my Daughter Dee.

We have been doing the video chat thing with the whole family and it so great. On Christmas Day we got to watch Ann's boys tear into Christmas and it was almost like being there. Paul and son Bob chat weekly and talk about, what else, FOOTBALL! We highly recommend this to everyone.

When we got back here, the friends from WI started arriving, we are all here safe and sound and very happy to see each other.

There are 3 of the couples in our complex and the other couple is up the road a little.

We all got together to celebrate the new year and do what we do best, eat, laugh and play games. This year it was DICE!

It is starting out cloudy this morning, I hope this is not a harbinger of the next 2 months :-)

That is it for this week, I am really doing well at keeping this thing up!

I guess I'll try and get in a walk before the morning gets away from me.
