Max arrived today after visiting my mom in Minneapolis. He’s here for Abbot and Meagans wedding week. So nice to have him back here.


the snow is amazing so we immediately got out on skis



Later in the day we braved a trip out .. though the roads were a mess with new snow. We went to harbor freight and lowes for parts for several projects max weas doing for Abbot and Meagan’s wedding.. then we stopped by rebars .. he had been plannign a fluffy gatehring. but most people had to bail because of the roads.. Marie and Lefty were there.. They all know max.. so it was nice to all get together !



Gabe was supposed to be flyign in today.. he’s hard at work on his thesis.. so his plan is to fly here.. work like crazy.. then jump out for the wedding. His plane got canceled at the last moment in Chicago.. it was 9 PM so he was facing fininding a hotel to satay until their 6AM departure the next morning. Luckily Deb was on the same plane.. and so was our freind Elliot. Deb called her (and our) friends Suzie and Rodger who came and picked them up.. wined and dined them.. agave them a place to sleep then took them back to the airport in the very early morning.. What would have been a terrible drag turned into a party ! Here’s a picture they sent

So nice to have the boys here !..
nite all, nite sam – I feel you here too
