Felices Fiestas
This is a very brief post to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas. This year has been a very different Christmas; more so than almost any I can remember in years past. It’s not the fact that it’s 90 degrees and I’m sipping white wine by the pool. It’s not the lack of Christmas decorations, nor the fact that the only Christmas song I heard was I Saw Momma Kissing Santa Claus when calling Walgreens pharmacy in Albuquerque. As much as you can deny it, it just doesn’t feel like Christmas without being surrounded by our families and closest friends. It feels, well, foreign. So to all our friends and family, I’d like to extend a very special thanks and gratitude for being a part of our lives. You mean something important to us, even when we are thousands of miles away.
We’ll post more on our time in Argentina in the coming days! Until then, as they say here at Christmas, felices fiestas!

Happy Holidays! It never quite felt like Christmas being away from home, family and friends for the first time. I thought I’d wake up feeling dumpy and emotional, but the day went fine; other than the heat going out in the cooking trailer while I was baking pumpkin muffins, but I’ve come to expect that sort of thing and toughened up a lot over the past week. I came to California to learn to garden; not become Survivor Woman. It’s kinda cool. I feel good.
Enjoy that sunshine! All my best for a happy new year and safe journey towards home.
