Christmas eve with Tracy, Bert and Mary



Lovely day here in Maryland. We took a long walk, read and spent time with Mary Elizabeth. We made some gingerbread cookies which resulted in tough brownish clumps. We DID have a blast making a big mess!


It's Christmas eve and the light reminds me of Christmas eves at Aunt Marthas house with a big roast on the table, and 20 or so cousins playing various instruments for Christmas carols around the piano.

Here is our Maryland family.



BERT, TRACY, and MARY ELIZABETH

On our way south tomorrow................

    Hey guys, I want a picture of your valliant horse...er....car, the red subaru turbo.
    It's 36 degrees here and I'm looking forward to SNOW to blanket the plants.

    What is your route? Down south, then across, then up and back across on the northern route? Are you doing your hiking thing at Palm Springs?

    What a GREAT idea!

    Andrea :)
