Happy Holidays

Sorry for the lack of posts recently. I've been in Seattle for the last two weeks for a project at MS. It was a whirlwind...literally. Most of you probably live in Seattle and know all about it, but for those that don't it was amazing. Massive trees down all over town, power out for a million people. I think some people still don't have power a week later. I stayed with Cimp and a giant 100 foot tall cedar next door to his started leaning precipitously towards his house as a result of the storm. I think it was removed yesterday as a result. Thank goodness the house next door held it down.

Other excitement in Seattle was that I got in a little fender bender in my rental car. Completely not paying attention I rear-ended the guy in front of me. Nothing major, but a nice impression of a trailer hitch in the hood of the Impala. No damage to his truck luckily. Thank goodness for Diners Club insurance.

Erin and I are taking off for our next adventure later tonight. We're headed to Rome tonight followed by Malta tomorrow until the 26th. We'll be in Rome again on the 26th and then drive up to meet my Dad, Tracey and Abby in Umbria. We leave from Venice back to London on the 5th. Should be a blast.

I hope everyone has a great holiday! Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and see you next year!! More posts and pictures soon.
