These are from our drive through Wyoming just a few days ago. We somehow slipped through a little crack in the storm in order to avoid the worst of the weather, but the clouds were beautiful, especially with the mountain background.
It’s definitely winter, and the holidays are just around the corner!
It’s Jake’s birthday. Jake, Meg and the dogs are driving between Wyoming and Nebraska on their way to Kansas City for the holidays. At last report, they have stayed just ahead of bad weather. It is a tough way to spend a birthday–driving across country with two greyhounds in the middle of winter.
Jake, we all wish you a great birthday. 
Terry, Laura and Sophia send their love from Amsterdam Terry is visiting to be with Sophia for her 3rd birthday party tomorrow.
My dad, Sherry and Bill, Jon, Dana and Caroline all wish you a happy birthday.
I know you seem to work non-stop. But you and Meg do have the benefit of those gorgeous California weekends to compensate for the hard work.
Have a wonderful birthday and arrive here safely.
Love from all of us.
