I was hoping maybe we could do a group hot tub photo today, but, like much of the country, it's gotten cold and windy out there. Not as cold and windy as places further north, but bad enough to make hot tubbing an extreme sport today. If I tried it right now, my tripod would blow away.

There's a turkey getting brined in the fridge and we've got plans to go to Waffle House for breakfast to help make some waiter or waitresses day a little better (scroll down below the Christmas poop story to get to the relevant bit.

I'll stay off the computer for the rest of the day, and then I may be headed up to my Mom's tomorrow, so happy holidays from me and everyone at the Ranch. Hope yours are wonderful.
