The first week of Dec, I was reading about weight training and figuring out how I should approach that.


Over that weekend we flew to Salt Lake City to visit Dolly's relatives there for their holiday party. This picture is the view from their neighborhood.


During the afternoon before the party, we went to the local ice rink. The hand stamp was a ladybug. The skating was okay. I managed not to fall, but wondered sometimes if I could stay up if I needed to stop, but didn't because I could move around the obstacles. One of the obstacles was this little girl that was going the WRONG way around the rink.

The relatives are Mormon, so they said grace before starting in on the party food and there was no alcohol. I didn't miss the latter because I don't drink, but it was different because there wasn't any.
