Hello everybody!  I arrived in Tampa last night.  It has been great to see my daughter and my grandpuppy.  My daughter is on her Christmas break at the University of South Florida in Tampa where she is a grad student.  We're planning all sorts of fun activities this week.  I'll tell you all about them later in the week.

It's very windy and chilly down here in Tampa.  The high today will only be in the low 50s.  But I guess I shouldn't complain since the Hermann area is really getting some frigid cold weather.

I think the first thing we're going to do today (since it's too cold to go to the beach) is to go car shopping.  My daughter's little Honda Civic has 113,000 miles on it.  Although it's still chugging along, we think it may be time to trade.  Her Honda has served her well.  She's had it since she first started driving in high school about 10 years ago.  Now she's got her eye on the Nissan Rogue and the Honda CR-V.

More later!
