  We are home now. We went to Kansas City for Christmas instead of dealing with 
impossible air travel. We picked a city near enough to be easy but far enough 
to be different

   

  Last night, for entertainment we sat in our hotel room and ate fancy cheese 
and fruit and smoked fish and hot bread and watched, through our window, people 
coming in to the hotel looking like refugees. It was a blizzard. Winds of 50 
miles an hour and sleet and snow blowing horizontally. It would blow UNDER your 
clothes, push your coat up and get under sweaters and all there was no defense, 
so people did that walk where one arm was in front of their face as they fought 
against the wind to get from the car to the door.

   

  This morning we loaded the truck (thank God we were in the truck) and four 
wheeled it past the stuck cars in the hotel drive way and plowed through three 
foot snowbanks to the highway. We only slid in the ice on the freeway once, but 
the highway from KC all the way to the Arkansas border was littered with cars 
off the side and in the median.

   

  Here at home I did a scary slide down the driveway road (Psycobilly people 
know where I am talking about) and  found about 4" of snow here.

   

  Happy New Year all you clowns. Go Ducks in the Rose Bowl and time to get 
ready for the foolishness that is BULLI GRAS!!!
