Jonathan had the week off which was supposed to be fun. Unfortunately the day before he left the store, the owner told him it was closing effective December 31st. Needless to say, this announcement was not well received and put a damper on plans to do some costly repairs during his time off - we need to see what plays out.

Anyway, the weather has certainly cooperated this week and we did get a few cleaning and winterizing projects done, not to mention repairing the toilet (way past necessary). We took our first road trip in the car this morning too to see the Redwoods. It was just beautiful and they are an awesome sight. It was a peaceful place and we were glad to be able to get off the dock and out in the world.

Not much else. Attached are a few photos - as one of our friends said, "you guys wouldn't have any luck, if you didn't have bad luck!!! We will survive. More later.
