Happy Holidays!

Hope everyone is having a happy, healthy holiday. We're doing fine. We've had a couple snowy days, and several nights with temperatures below zero, but mostly, it's just been beautiful!

Link is still working. He really enjoys his colleagues at OHP. He still enjoys travel, which is a considerable part of his job. I try to go with him if it's someplace we can tack on an additional day or two of vacation. We just returned from a trip to Palm Springs. We were planning on golfing, but Link hurt his elbow (slipped on ice while shoveling the driveway), so we decided to wait until it's doing better before irritating it by golfing. We enjoyed ourselves simply soaking up sun, walking, and eating some delicious food!

Erik's still in grad school in Brookings, SD. He's happy to be helped by his NASA Fellowship - congratulations Erik! Amelia has slowed down some from her dancing business -they're expecting our first grandchild in June! We can't wait! They will be visiting us for New Year's, and bringing our grand dog for a visit. It's always fun to see them!

Karl's working hard at construction (his off-season job when he's not managing the elk/fishing camp), and leaves Friday to visit friends in Paris. I don't envy the construction/guiding parts, but the travel part of his life is grand!

I'm happily retired. I like it here in Belgrade. I haven't gotten too involved with organizations yet, although I have served a year as president of our homeowners association. I plan on leaving that post this spring, and hopefully, will be able to visit Brookings to see the grand baby often! There's always something planned to look forward to, so I'm just sailing along.

Have a wonderful holiday season!
