Yoo-hoo! I'm back. Didja miss me?!Don't answer that.
I've been crazy busy with my new job, but I wanted to post a few photos from Thanksgiving, when Jeanne and NOD flew all the way from Washington, D.C., to have turkey dinner with us and E.'s family in northern California, then spend a lovely weekend at our new house in Tahoe.
So here are several choice pix. The first is of the drive from Tahoe on I-80 back to the Bay Area, where E. and I dropped off Jeanne and D. What a beautiful sunset! I believe we just passed Donner Pass. Yes, that Donner.
(Jeanne, you'll get lots of sunset and other photos from me when I download them on Flickr tomorrow.)
The second is of Jeanne, I, and assorted family members at the dinner table on Thanksgiving. The remaining photos are of us the day after Thanksgiving, on me and E.'s favorite short Tahoe hike. It's a 3-mile hike (1.5 mile incline, 1.5 mile decline) to Eagle Lake.
Oh, and in the spirit of the recent NaBloPoMo, I've decided to do my own version, albeit a month later. Given my schedule and travel plans (I'm going to Hawaii on Friday to run the Honolulu Marathon!), I won't have time to post daily on this blogeroo. But I can post every other day.
Gives me a goal.
And, you know, I'm all about goals.
You look really good for someone who's 251 years old!
ReplyDeletegod we're good looking.
ReplyDeletebtw, i uploaded most of my photos to your computer!
Of course we missed you!
ReplyDeleteAnd now I'm itching to head for Tahoe!
What a feast!
ReplyDeleteThe scenery around your area is so pretty. Nelson must be in heaven with all the outdoors.
Good to have you blogging again. Love the pictures of people dressed up for cold weather. There is hope for us all, even those of us in Arizona.
ReplyDeleteExcellent photos! Looks great. I can't wait to get there. I'll be staying on the "West Shore" at the Tahoe Tree House, one block from Paige Meadows and Tahoe National Forest (whatever that means!)
ReplyDeleteGood luck in Honolulu!!!
hey, it's the 5th: where's your next post???:)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the 'training run' in Honolulu. I wish every marathon started well before dawn, but I'm a morning person.
ReplyDeleteyou're in honolulu! good luck!!!! Get plenty of sleep beforehand and hydrate up. i'll be thinking of you!
ReplyDeleteBex who? Oh, yeah.
ReplyDeleteHonolulu Marathon? When did you decide to do that? No blogging and we have no idea how much to expect of you in this run.
Your editor called me about your use of pronouns and adjectives on that last post.Tsk. Tsk.
Best of luck at the Honolulu Marathon on Sunday!
ReplyDeleteHey Bex, good luck! Give it that ol' determined effort you showed running down people on Leg 7 and at the LPRM!
ReplyDeleteGreat to talk to you today, Bex! Hope the rain stopped and you finished strong. Nothing like talking to a runner in the middle of a marathon!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope the Honolulu marathon went well!
