The drive down was one of our smoother ones. We weren’t dealing with weather or a lot of road construction. It is a long trip but we are here and enjoying it.
I am writing this while we wait for the rest of the gang to show up. Caroline opened a present this morning (a unicorn) [...]

We are dug out and our sidewalk is clear except where the snow service for our neighbor blew snow back onto the sidewalk that Peter so carefully cleared. Most of our neighbors have cleared their walks as well. The driveway was a pain but Peter got his snow blower to work and took care of [...]
