I went walking on January 4 and found a Fed-Ex truck stuck in the wash south of us. We were expecting a package so I asked if he had it. He did and said he had never been on this route before and ours was the last delivery. It took over an hour to get him out!

We celebrated Dawn's birthday on January 6 at Sweet Tomatoes. We had a good time but it was really cold inside.

We had a package delivered to our old address so that gave us an excuse to to visit former neighbors and pick some grapefruit. Always nice to see old friends and have fresh fruit!
The weather has been so nice we have ridden the bike to church several times. I actually missed riding the bike.
Dawn, Vince and their family went to Disney World for their anniversary and Larry took them to the airport at 7 AM (no room for me in the truck). A week later we picked them up at the airport. I drove Colby's car to the airport so they could just drive home since they live on the south side of town. We 'cat sat' while they were gone.
We've been going weekly to the chiropractor to help Larry get straighten around. After eight months with our adjustable bed, he has finally found the "sweet spot" and is now sleeping thru the night without moving around and even better, "NO PAIN". PTL!
The 'biggie' for the month was a hot air balloon ride to celebrate my 'big' birthday. It was awesome!! We were in the air over an hour and soared to 7800 ft. We could see the San Fransisco Peaks and the Mogollon Rim. We also saw a wild burro and her baby. It definitely was the highlight of the year.
