NOVEMBER 2013

PALM SPRINGS:  The Cheesecake Factory and lots of fun.  Here Aubrey, Elains, and I stand in front of a BBQ pig restaurant.

DESERT HOT SPRINGS:  8 pools, all different temperatures.  A great place to go swimming, in the winter time.  Unfortunately Aubrey (below)  thought that a person can go swimming any time of year, after visiting this place.

JOSHUA TREE:  a place I use to go climbing as a single person.  Elaina and Seth had fun rock climbing with dad on Veteran's day.

AUBREY'S BIRTHDAY PARTY:  We had cupcakes, friends, and family over.  Too bad I got my cholesterol checked after this party, it went up 30 points.

HIPPY DAY AT SCHOOL:  Elaina had fun dressing up for a wacky day at school.

TAKING THE CHRISTMAS FAMILY PHOTO:  It took 60 pictures and we never got it quite right.  This picture is what most of them were like.

NEIL MOVES BUILDINGS:  His old building got shut down and he moved to the high rise building.  The good news is on a clear day, he can see the ocean.

JOGGING THANKS GIVING DAY:  We visited a lake up the street from us and burnt some calories before the big meal.

THANKS GIVING WITH THE MISSIONARIES:  On the left Sister Cavareta (I had fun feeding her weird and different foods, and listening to her diplomatic responses to the food)  Kelly, Keith, sister Hanely (a great rapper) and Sister Berg ( the New Yorker).

MURIETTA OPENING CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL:  The worst  I've lost Aubrey so far was here.  She pointed at the big clock over city hall and said "clock, clock, Chicken"  What?  OH "cluck, cluck, chicken"  I that was pretty clever.
