the new state I'm in

Well, we're off for a vacation, back to the warmth of Southern California, to see long lost and very much missed friends and family. It is my Papa's 70th birthday (what???) and we are throwing him a gigantic surprise party. Don't tell! I will share my pictures and videos of all this partying as soon as we return. Until then, let us not forget the beauty of Bainbridge while we are being seduced by the flashy heat of Los Angeles. Like this crazy orange bark shining in the winter sun and the lovely geese that might give me a bonk on the head...
