Woke up this morning and it was snowing again. Luckily it's very light and only a dusting so far.
Last night we watched the 1932 Best Picture which was The Grand Hotel. This one had legendary stars John Barrymore, Joan Crawford, and Greta Garbo in it and told the story of guests checking into and out of the grandest hotel in Berlin, Germany. Very good movie with a surprising ending that no one would expect, but I won't ruin it for anyone who still hasn't seen the movie.
I will be on vacation for 9 days beginning January 24th. Julie and I always take this week off as it celebrates two events in our lives. The first is Seattle Mariners fanfest weekend, when we get the chance to meet the players and coaches, and hear about their thoughts on the upcoming season. It takes place at Safeco Field and includes the chance to see alot of the behind the scenes stuff, including the players lockers, batting cages, weight room, and cafeteria all located underneath the stadium. We can go to the pressroom; even up to the control room for the retractable roof. This year should be especially interesting since we have an entire new organization with a new GM, all new coaches, and many new players.
The 2nd important date for us is January 26th, which is our wedding anniversary. It was 5 years ago on this date that we tied the knot up in Abbottsford, British Columbia, Canada. It has been 5 good years with lots of travel. We've attended MLB baseball games in Oakland, CA; Baltimore, MD; Philadelphia, PA; and traveled all over the USA, from Washington to California to Florida to Maryland. We visited family all over the place: Canada, Wisconsin, Louisiana, Arizona, Nevada, and California. We've gone to Hawaii. We're hoping to make another trip to Louisiana next year to meet the newest relatives....Melanie and Zachary, who joined our family last year.
Here's hoping that everyone is doing well. If you get the chance, please email me or leave a comment on this blog so I know someone is reading these. Thanks.
