Whee, holidays
Dec. 28th, 2008 09:26 pmThe holidays were great this year. I picked up Panther in Rochester on Yule, and got to have him at my place for a couple of days, which was cool.
The weather on the 24th was supposed to involve freezing rain. This posed a problem, as we were due to travel to Maine that day. So I got out of work a bit early (I'll work extra hours this week) and we left on the 23rd. This resulted in an extra day of just relaxing at my parents' place, which was lovely.
Christmas itself was rather minimalist. I got a number of neat things (including jewelry and art) from my family. We then went to my cousins' place, where Christmas was decidedly less minimalist (and not as nice, I thought).
I then got to drag Panther all over the mid-coast area visiting friends and shopping. Much fun was had by all.
The return trip today was wonderful driving, thanks to the unseasonable thaw.
oh, and I had essentially no internet access during this time - if anything important happened, let me know.
