December on the road

Since JoAnne wasn't ready for us to move in until January, we thought December would be a good time to catch up with some people we hadn't seen in awhile.

First we drove to Montana and visited some folks...



Leon & Karen



Eileen, Seth, Amanda & Merryn.



Next we flew to New Jersey to see some more folks...



take a day trip to the American Museum of Natural History (and the tree at Rockefeller Center) in New York City...



another day trip to Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania - it was cold...



and open some presents.





Then we flew back to Idaho to celebrate New Years...



And headed back to California with a stop in Portland, Oregon to see Craig & Laura...



And a tour of the northern coast of California - including some redwood viewing.
