November and December

Hi everyone, I don't keep up on this very well and every time I work with pictures I get the blue screen of death!
Anyway, November was good. We had a special get- a -way together in Gateway Colorado. Gateway is located north east of Moab, on the border of Utah. We were able to fly in and land on a dirt run way. Anywhere Gary can fly into is a great place to go! I have to say that I am getting very used to this flying stuff, it saves so much time!
Gateway is a lot like the Moab area with red rock and gorgeous rock formations. The one funny thing was when we were driving around and came on a big yellow sign that said "Danger, you are entering radioactive areas" I laughed and thought how we choose differant places to recreate in.
We are getting ready for Christmas like everyone else and have already shipped off packages to Japan. Who would have thought that my daughter would live so far away!!
Well everyone have a wonderful Christmas and I am going to work on the pictures!

I am assuming you mean flying in one of those little prop planes? My dad used to fly those...it always made me nauseous! I have fond memories of flying from Dubuque Iowa to Des Moines for breakfast on Saturdays sometimes. Was that like a hundred years ago?

Thanks for the Christmas card. I love to hear from you guys!
