A Weird and Wonderful Christmas

It's Christmas morning and as I look outside there is no snow.  Instead there is a warm breeze, blue skies and sunshine.  Weird.  It doesn't matter that I knew it would be this way, I just have a hard time getting the brain around this idea.  Sunshine and Christmas.

Being Christmas morning and finding ourselves without the family around we did the only logical thing.  We drove to the Humane Society and walked dogs.  The dogs didn't know it was Christmas but they love to get out of their kennels and to go for a walk.  16 dog walks and we were ready to take our puppy for her walk.


Eva, Terri and I drove North to Cerritos to watch the surfers and walk the beach.  It was Eva's first visit to the Pacific.  She had a great time running and picking up shells.  She didn't like getting her feet wet when the waves rolled in.

A long walk South followed by a long walk North.


These are my feet and the rest of me enjoying the pool on Christmas day.  Again, weird, but very nice.

We had a wonderful Christmas dinner with our Canadian friends, Russ and Karen.  They put on the whole turkey dinner with all the fixings.  It was great food and nice to be with new friends for Christmas.

We have firmed up our Spring RV plans.  We will be leaving Mazatlan around March 14th to head back to Tucson to get the RV out of storage.  We have reservations in Phoenix for some Spring Major League Baseball.  Terri's family will be meeting us there and we plan to see some Seattle and San Diego games.

My final words of wisdom:

And as Santa would say, "Cheers".  Not Ho Ho Ho.
