It is Christmas today. New bikes were purchased…I have to admit, I am overwhelmed at the amount of money that one of us is spending. There always seems to be shopping that needs to be done and the trip always turns into a “buying” trip, not a “looking” trip.

Our friends, Diane and Bob, left this morning for Colorado, their home, for the holidays. This afternoon I drove another couple, Jim and Maggie, to the airport. They are flying home to Las Vegas. Diane has arranged rides for everyone. Jim will pick Kelley and I up when we return in January. I will pick Diane and Bob up when they arrive. Diane and Bob are going to share there car with us. Others have offered their car as well. Boaters are so generous and helpful.
