Viva...









...Las Vegas!
After a small detour to Irvine (to pick up Derek), the boys, Koko, Michael and I all headed over the Cajon Pass and up the I-15 to Vegas. It was a quick trip there and back, but we packed in some quality family time and have many pictures to show for it! It had snowed just a couple days before we arrived and there was enough snow for a small snow ball fight between brothers. Most of the time though, we were indoors practicing our gigs as a family band and visiting and gambling with Grandma Minnie. We did venture outside again for a short time for the mandatory family portrait. Many, many thanks to the Ciarlos for putting up with all of us ~ with special thanks from Kokobella!!

BIGGEST, BRIGHTEST FULL MOON!


Well, almost ~ it's actually tomorrow night! Shortly after the moon rose this evening, I stepped out to take a look. It was incredibly clear! This is what I saw through the camera lens!!

Celestial Triumvirate


The crescent moon, Jupiter and Venus. Word has it, if you didn't catch it tonight, the same trio won't be visible again until 2052!
