holiday cheer

it's cold and rainy and twinkle lights abound. what can it mean except that the holiday season is here once again. i made the drive back up to northern california a few days ago. i was a little scared that it might be a bad drive because, a few days before, a bunch of the freeways and roads had been closed due to SNOW. yes, snow in southern california and las vegas even. unfortunately i didn't get any actual snow where i was but it was close enough that they closed the grapevine down for a day (which is exactly how i drive home). luckily the worst of the weather only lasted a couple of days and my drive was quite uneventful. however, i did see this while driving through the mountains.

snow

i've seen snow before. in california even. but i still had to resist to urge to just pull over and touch the snow on the hills. the last few says have been filled with last minute christmas shopping and last minute knitting, too. i don't usually do too much gift knitting but i do like to make my family hats and things for the holidays. i started kind of late this year so it's going to be a race to finish everything in time. i'll try to post those fo's once they are done.

hope everyone else is having a fun filled holiday. see you in 2009!
