Go West 2

Thanksgiving was great.  Hilary and Richard made a traditional meal with all the fixin's.  Mark and Julia, their friends, joined us.  Julia is from Edinburgh and they are redoing their wedding vows over Christmas break.  Traditional Scottish wedding with men in kilts (jealous).  On Friday played 9 holes of golf with Hilary and Richard at Hank Haney's short course.  Low 60's (temp not my score), sunny.  Nice.  Saturday I played again by myself while Monica and Hilary shopped.  Sunday we went to the Dallas Aboritum to see a display of over 500 Nativity Scenes (creches).  Truly amazing and uplifting to see how many different visions people have had of the glorious Nativity mystery.  My favorite was a set made from the ashes from the Mt. St. Helena eruption. Pics below. Click on pictures for a better view.
