Good afternoon, I am a bit late today..... busy

Chris I am glad you are sleeping... I really am.

Cariad.... yes, we do have holidays but most is political related... some struggle somewhere .. none is as nice as thanksgiving. Hope you feel better soon. You do know a cold takes 7 days to go away....

Aleta, I hope you enjoy your trip! We are going away next weekend ski-ing on the dam not in snow... heheheh  Thanks for the cheer.

HAPPY FRIDAY ALL... you know it is my favourite day.!

Home from Ventura.  It was an awesome Thanksgiving by the ocean.  Everything was delicious.  We brought deserts.  I made a cheesecake and my son made apple, chocolate cream and banana cream pies.   :2thumbsup;

Hi everyone!

Aleta, we'll miss you too. Have FUN!!!

Des, I hope you are enjoying what's left of your weekend. I am feeling a bit better myself, thanks to some cold medicine. Thanks for the concern.

Marc, so glad you enjoyed your holiday. Sounds beautiful.

Chris, I am here freezing right along with you! Actually, I'm north of you, so subtract a few degrees and you'll know how I feel. :P

We took the kids to see the lighting of the Christmas whale. One of the museums decorates their 150-year-old whale skeleton with fairy lights and a santa hat every year.

Take care, all, until I return to win again!

I hooked up top my cycler early tonight, because I wanted to play an online poker game at 10pm, and if I hadn't hooked up and then come off again, I would be too late for church in the morning...
There's something not quite right about that I think lol.

Greetings everyone - back from Maine - HUGE wind in the air today - gusts up to 35 mph - I had to actually pay attention driving - keeping the car between the white lines and all was a challenge today.

I must admit we do not have a lighting of the whale here in Vermont.  That must be a sight to see.   :santahat;

Have a great rest of your weekend.
