REFLECTIONS: The season's first fire

Last Saturday night, Linda cooked an awesome dinner of chili and rice, and we headed outside to the patio. I fired up the chimenea and together we enjoyed mid-50 degree temperatures, the great food, the warming fire, and the company of O'Ryan, our 12 year old Golden Retriever. We reflected on the very unusual year that we've had and are thankful for good health and especially for each other. We hope the rest of the year is "uneventful..."

This is our favorite time of year and we've already decided it's the holidays, kicked off by last weekend's visit to EPCOT's Food and Wine Festival, with my mom. We had a great time and she did, too. In early December, we're taking mom (and Lauren, who missed out on our family trip to Nevada in August) to New York City. We are looking forward to seeing the Rockettes (got our tix already), the Tree in Rockefeller Center, Grimaldi's Pizza (and eating a ton of other good NY style fare), Macy's, etc. We've done this trip a couple times before and it's starting to become "traditional" for us. Anyone know a good show for us to catch?
