Post-Christmas Crash


I feel like this guy right now.  We made it home from Susie's and then the farm, though in the snow we had to learn how to get out of Eagle Valley all over again.  But even though it's been a few years, the technique for achieving escape velocity comes back to you.  You pull out of the drive, start up the hill, and fail.  You back up, trying not to back into the ditch, get a good running start at the hill, cross your fingers as you make the first bend, and (just barely) clear the top.  Brings back old memories...

We did have a great time at Susie's with Mom & Dad and Les & Dan and more of the clan together in one place than we usually can muster -- and far more food and dessert than anyone can digest of course.
