Peaceful day…  I managed to sleep until 9 which is what I needed after last night’s drive. Max and I got in around 3AM last night… It was a great drive.. both of us managed to stay awake long enough to enjoy hanging out together.. Max played DJ and turned me on to some new music…   He drove the second half while I slept. He saw a huge shooting star while I was asleep…<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Today started out cold.. 5 degrees… and never really warmed up much. Gabe went up to Bolton to freeze his tuchus off.. while Diane, Chai and I took a great snowshoe on the side of Robin’s mountain.   By the time we got back both Chai and  my beards were frozen solid..  After a brief warming spell inside, Diane and I went out and took apart the trampoline for the winter.. Note to self.. There are probably some great 30 degree days to do this next year.. <\/p>\n

I spent an hour or so trying to figure out a good way to to get a years worth of my blog in printable form. It was hard work.. not so much the text processing.. but reading through all of that old stuff. Someday I’ll re-read it end to end.. but now is just too soon. <\/p>\n

Around 4 I zoomed up the mountain to pick up Gabe. He still had all of his fingers and toes. .. but he did say one of his friends did get a little frostbitten. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

We headed straight from Bolton to the Christmas tree place in Essex.. Max was there waiting for us. The boys immediately spotted a beauty. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

After a few minutes of grunting and cursing we had the tree down, bagged and on our car.   This is another ritual that is so changed now.. everything is.. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Max is home and we’re together again as a family.. 4 forks… <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

A really nice dinner…It’s so good to be together… <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

After dinner.. it was time to put the tree up..<\/div>\n

We picked well. The tree is 1cm shorter than the ceiling !<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n
Tomorrow we decorate.. Right now I’m going to go do absolutely nothing with my family. G’nite all.. G’nite Sam.. we’re thing of you.<\/p>\n
