Just posted an album of photos on Flickr from our trip to visit my family in Austin. We had a great time. Austin is a really lovely city, although it was unseasonably cold.

Here are some highlights…

Grandma Vickie making latkes for Hanukkah


Nice views from Mount Bunnell

Hauling hay at the Y-Not Ranch, where my aunt raises miniature cattle and donkeys

We observed the longstanding Jewish tradition of Chinese food for Christmas (note the mooonlinght tower in the background)

My mom dancing with a very nice Harley-riding tractor salesman in a blues bar (he was a good dancer, but she did not give him her number)
