Life and Adventures in Kentuckiana

Late Thanksgiving night we decided to attempt the Best Buy Black Friday doorbuster. I sent my husband out at 1:30am on a scouting mission. He reported back that a line of tents went around the building past the loading docks. We then decided to go to sleep and slept until noon. Apparently even in a recession people still need their HD TVs.

Earlier that day we went to a farm in Southern Indiana for Thanksgiving dinner with some family. It was very yummy and the portions were huge which left plenty of leftovers for all of us. The drive was very scenic through small farms and quaint old homes. We also saw a beautiful black and white woodpecker with a bright red head flying by.

Thanksgiving marked the beginning of cold weather for us, but the past few weeks were warm and sunny. We went hiking in a research forest just south of Louisville. It was very pretty and serene with the changing colours. We will be heading there often. (Even in the snow; I love snow hiking.)

Life has carried on with some similarities to California, but mainly differences. For example, I had to buy a pair of work shoes suitable for snow and ice; an act that never occurred in San Diego. Experiencing both new and familiar events has been fun and I can't wait for more (especially the first snow fall).
