Christmas 2022

This year we went to Mount Pleasant to spend the holiday with Lindsay and Jamie. There was record cold all across the country during this Christmas. Jenny and I stayed in the new RV parked in their driveway. We're calling the new RV the MP3. Anyway, it was cold enough that we were afraid our pipes might freeze. I think we might have dodged a bullet, but I can't be sure.

Thanksgiving 2022

Another massive undertaking, a chaotic maelstrom of partially organized bedlam. There is more leftover food than we ate. Typical. Jamie's family drove or flew down from NY. We enjoyed having them join us. Today is Friday, leftover day. Let the weight gain begin.

New RV

This is RV #3. The first 2 had 3 slid out rooms. We experienced a lot of unpleasant issues with those slides. They were the source of their nicknames "Money Pit". This one has 0 slides. It is on a Mercedes chassis and has a Diesel engine. We picked it up in North Carolina and spent 4 days getting home. Jenny and I have committed to this one being our last one.

Aubrey races X-country

Aubrey runs cross country in the fall and high jumps in the spring. There was a state wide X-country meet in Newberry SC over the weekend that Fort Mill HS participated in. I have never seen a running spectacle quite like the event in Newberry. There were over 3000 runners divided into multiple divisions. A couple of the pics shows the line up and the start of Aubrey's race. It was a thundering herd of hundreds of teenage girls. Crossing the course as a spectator could prove fatal. Aubrey finished in the middle of the pack but she had a PR. (Personal Record). There are several more races where she can lower her PR this season.
