Thanksgiving

My daughter wanted to go to California for Thanksgiving.

It seems like the weather is always bad for Thanksgiving,

but she pulled the 'Grandma' card.

You know?  I really want to visit Grandma.

So we grabbed Scott and his guitar and her dog and took a 

ROAD TRIP

For the record, 

the weather was delightful

We were able to visit with family.

Lots and lots of family.

Family we haven't seen since the last time we had Thanksgiving there.

She also wanted to go to the beach.

It's not really a hard sell.

The sun was out,

We went to Dillon Beach on the Sonoma Coast.

It was beautiful.

I felt blessed to spend a few hours in the sun

and sand in November.

The water was icy cold,

but the company was warm.

When we came home the weather was also nice this week,

until yesterday when we were visited with the first snow.

It had to happen, but I am never ready for it.
