Obligatory Christmas Blog Entry

Yeah, yeah, yeah... I'm a little late on the Christmas blog.  But I've been having technical difficulties so get over it.  Now where did I leave off...

Jenn and I barely made it down to CA.  We hit a nice break in the weather and were only delayed a couple hours.  Once there, we had a really relaxing time with family and friends.  Some of the highlights were surfing in Santa Cruz, power outage on Christmas, and hanging with the fam.  

I miss quail, turkey vultures, and eucalyptus.  When I went down earlier this month, the first thing I noticed when I stepped out of the airport was a turkey vulture soaring overhead.  At my grandma's house on Christmas, I could hear the quail running around and chirping to each other in the bushes.  And every time I go down, I love to smell the eucalyptus trees (I tried bringing back some seeds but couldn't get them to grow- I'll try again).

We celebrated with Jenn's family when we got back to WA.  Another great time.  I hope the pictures tell the tale.

Well that's all for now.  I have to get started working on my New Years blog entry.  I'm already late...

I'll never forget watching World's Strongest Man together at midnight on Christmas Eve. Peerdovvskei will live in my heart forever as the symbol of the holiday.
