December
18th 2008 I
made it to
the Tundra
and was
greeted with
-12 degree
temperatures.
I drove to
Barron
Wisconsin
and
celebrated
Jewel's
birthday
with her and
she gave me
my Christmas
gift .. a
very nice
WARM Coat.
Jewel and
Bob are in
the mist of
doing an
extensive
remodeling
project so
their home
is in the
final stages
of a
construction
project.
When we
picked up
Marcus and
Fran at the
Sitters the
excitement
of Christmas
started.
After
spending
Thursday and
Friday at
Barron I
made my way
thru the
light snow
to Eau
Claire to
visit my
mother and a
number of
friends.
Before the
day was in
the light
snow came
down and
down ( 8 to
12 inches ) making
the Roads a
real
challenge
for both me
and the guy
that hit my
Rental Car
in a Parking
Lot .. UFDA
!!
Despite the
BITTER COLD
temperatures
( low -18 ..
high +17 ) ,
snow ( about
16 inches ),
roads (
rough and
slippery )
etc it was
well worth
it to be
able to
spend some
time with
family and
friends over
the
holidays.
After having
Christmas
Eve dinner
at Dan and
Debbie's
home and
having the
Family Gift
Exchange at
my mothers
place on
Christmas
Day I
returned to
SUNNY and
WARM Fort
Myers
Florida.
