Thanksgiving

The older I get, the more I realize how important tradition has become...



I don't just mean turkey--but the whole ritual of all 30+ people gathered around the extended table (that seems to grow each year), the passing of the food, the continuous laughter, the loud conversations, side conversations, and commotion of it all...Thanksgiving has somehow slipped past Christmas for my favorite holiday.

Bouldering near Putah Creek

Taking advantage of the unseasonably awesome bay area weather, and getting acquainted with my new playground...



Good people + good weather + good bouldering + peaceful scenery = a perfect day.  This quiet little spot near Winters beats Glen Canyon.
