Home Again

I am back from my vacation. Spent about 30 hours in Las Vegas, where I won 41 dollars, paid way too much for a mediocre meal, and saw “O,” which is breathtaking. I highly reccommend it.
After Vegas, Anne and I flew home, unpacked our bags, loaded the car, and drove to Lake Tahoe with the kids and Ferris. The drive was great: Anne and I listened to 80s CDs that we made, and the kids watched DVDs on my iBook. The eight hour drive raced by.
While we were up there, over two feet of snow fell, and the temperature only got over 33 once! It was awesome. We went sledding (tubing blows doors on regular sleds), introduced Ferris to the concept of bounding through chest-deep snow drifts, and just enjoyed being away from that pesky Real World.
