Happy New Year!

Wow! It seems like forever since I last blogged (and it has) but the holidays were crazy as I'm sure yours were. However my wife (Mary) and I were able to sneak away to Lake Tahoe on Christmas Day believe it or not. It was a beautiful day! We really never made it to Tahoe but we did make it as far as the snow. We got out and walked around a bit and enjoyed the day. My hope is that you all were able to find a little peace during your holiday season. Oh yeah, The black thing in the picture is my lab Pearl. She had a great time as well although she wasn't sure whether to walk or swim in the snow. Happy New Year and hope to see you soon.
