I am running way behind and I hope you all enjoyed your Christmas.  I had an extended family gathering followed by my immediate family Christmas Eve and then vistors for New Year.  We had wonderful weather, which for us means very little wind and we enjoyed clean King Tides in the middle of the day so in between eating we kept the children occupied at the beach.  I also swam every day.  Today is a little overcast and we are heading to the country for a rodeo, again with family.  Coming up for me is a luncheon with the Redbacks a group I love to go out with and hopefully a few of my chapter will join in too.  I have a de sal temporary construction platform nearby which has been closed over the holidays and I am just waiting to see how noisy it is before planning a beach party/luncheon.

Best wishes for a healthy happy fun filled 2009 to everyone.
