We made it safe and sound after a 1 1/2 delay getting off the ground in Vancouver. The snow was one thing, but the real issue was that as soon as the aircraft backed away from the ramp, its #2 engine wouldn't start! That was really reassuring, but they finally got it going. It meant our wait between planes in LA wasn't so long and after quick lunch we boarded the United Airlines flight and it pretty much left on time. There weren't many on this flight which meant we each had 3 seats to stretch out on and we each had a couple of good naps. We made a quick stop for some breakfast stuff at a grocery store and then found our "home" for the next month. And, here we are enjoying our first breakfast on the lanai. The temps are much like home we understand; hovering in the mid-eighties F!

Hi:
We're glad to see we can communicate this way. Everything looks wonderful there-enjoy. Your timing couldn't be better!!
We were out shovelling HEAVY WET STUFF!!! at 6:30--afraid it would rain on it and make it worse. Fortunately is just got warmer, so it's like driving in a slurpy.
Both ferries were cancelled last night.
Other than the weather, all is well.I spent the day at Dwight Hall decorating for the mill Christmas party-I'll be back there tomorrow as well, with more prep before Saturday's big bash.
Dann & MJ-I have flowers on my cactus-fianally!!!!
And so it goes
i'm looking forward to living vicariously through you for the next month! enjoy every minute!
