How did it get to be December so quickly! Argh! Okay, well, here is an update: This is one of the best times of the year foe sunsets here. The are has that clean, fresh quality about it right now- with rain coming from time to time. The sunsets so early now, it's making the days feel like they are going by at an accelerated rate...plus the holiday stuff!
On Friday, Tristam was in the holiday parade in San Luis Obispo. The kid had a blast! he loves to entertain a crowd. This is a small town parade. The kind where the local shops sponsor local clubs and groups and they make their own trailers, floats and costumes. We saw so many people we know both in the audience and in the parade. It was a really fun night.
The next morning we had another family outing. This time it was at friends, Lisa and Scott's, farm helping with the olive harvest. They make a primo olive oil (award winning, in fact). There were lots of couples with kids and quite a few kids from Tristam's first grade class and even his kindergarten and first grade teachers. A mariachi band serenaded us olive pickers as we worked, then at noon we were treated to a BBQ and we watched as the olives were poured into a crusher and the oil was separated from the pits. Anyhow- we had a blast.
I've been working on another Princess Posey book and assorted other projects. It's been a busy but fun time....
