Newlywed Thanksgiving - 30 Years Ago

Thirty years ago, we were newlyweds and had just moved to Rochester, MN. The first big snow was Thanksgiving-eve, so we spent the day having fun in the snow and taking photos. After Geoff started the camera auto-timer, Ellyn gave him a bit of surprise and this memorable photo is the result: http://www.flickr.com/photos/geoff0522/180825324/in/set-72157594253501026/

Dead, Training & Florida

Three new tidbits from here....

1) Our attorney confirmed today that the deal with our buyers is DEAD as there is no way they can get a mortgage. Our realtor is holding an open house on Sunday.

2) I have my Department Store training on Saturday and it's supposed to take 6-8 hours. I wonder if they have scheduled more training time for learning how to run the cash register or how to fold the clothes. I think it will take me longer to learn the latter.

3) Our current decision is that we will travel to Florida for January - however, we have scaled down the plans to stay mostly at the beautiful but lower cost State Parks. This photo is an example of one of our planned destinations - Fort De Soto which is a county campground near Tampa.
