for my kids.

Jim Messina Bus door is now fully operational; however, the Prevost tech found another problem: an air leak with the brake system. Looking forward to getting that fixed and then getting back home.

Jim Messina Drove the bus down to Mira Loma to have the lock on the door fixed... it broke during the L&M tour and trapped me in the bus a couple of times. Ah, fun memories!

For us non bus folks.. it's seems a little funny to get get locked inside of the vehicle. I'm sure it wasn't funny at the time. Maybe you can fashion a trap door in the floor if the lock fails again ;) I saw Michaela's photo of the huge magnifying glass on the bus seat, that I assume belongs to the lockmaster.. I thought that was pretty funny as well.

A Christmas favorite for sure. It's a tradition with my kids and I to watch It's a Wonderful Life along with White Christmas, A Christmas Carol (Alistair Sims), and Miracle of 34th Street (Natalie Woods). We always make sure to watch them all. Merry Christmas up there in SB!

Finished assembling the Jeep last night with the help of my son Julian! We were both very surprised that it has a working radio. It is now charging and hiding in the garage. :)

I shoot commercials for Fisher Price and have done a number of projects with thier Power Wheels ( they make them for girls, too !!) They really are a blast to ride around in. I'm guessing she won't get bored with it any time soon.

Jim Messina Off to a holiday party at one of my favorite wineries!

Outstanding!! I like getting recommendations from those who are knowledgeable or, who have 'been there and done that'.

A lot of the reason for my general preference of red wines comes from my cardiologist suggesting these by way of staying (somewhat) healthy. I had a pulmonary embolism several years ago and this is what sparked an interest in wines.

Thanks for the list!

BTW, I like a good 'smoky' Pinot Noir. I've come to really enjoy Mark West Pinot Noir 2008. As for Merlot, one that has been extremely consistent is Citra (from Italy). Shiraz, Cabernet and combinations thereof that I've found to be tasty usually came from Austrailia (Rosemont, Yellow Tail, et. al.)

Chadds Ford Winery in Pa. has a Proprietor's Reserve White that is delicious. My hope is to make it there before Christmas to pick some up.

I'm right there with you...it is a great movie! I watch it once a year. I almost didn't go out the night I met my husband cause I was going to stay home to watch it with a fire eating tamales.
