Back from the Christmas trip to my parent’s place in VA. We flew down on Friday, encountering long delays which added up to arrival at the airport around 1 in the morning. My mother had driven in to pick us up, and drove us back, getting to the farm house around 3am. Good times.
The weekend was wonderful. The new hot tub lived up to expectations, easily seating six, and encased in an Amish designed gazebo. Presents were exchanged, homemade wine was drunk, and everyone ate and slept a lot. We observed the nightly ritual of the 40+ geese who hang out on the pond self-organizing into two flocks at sunset and departing for the evening. Geese are kinda funny.
Particularly cool: My brother played Christmas carols on the lute he had borrowed from school.
Now we’re back in RI for a quick week, followed by a weekend in Emmaus, PA with redmed‘s parents.
