Not an old picture but an all time favorite--in Lassen Volcanic NP

 Here we are at January 21 and it seems like yesterday that Terry and I had a glass of wine-cheers to the new year and then it was bedtime 10:00 PM!!  But we are now on the down side of January 2014, in the middle of winter, getting excited about tax time, getting some projects done and there is more too.
I went to the store this morning and on the way out I just had to buy two bananas for breakfast.  Why? well years ago, about 55 years I think I said to myself, "I really like bananas but we can not afford them so when I get to be an adult I am going to buy one everyday!"  I have not purchased one everyday, in fact there may be weeks that go by without one but it seemed right this morning.
We got some work done last week.  Yard work was done, some order in the garage was finished and some decisions were made about more work.  This week we hope to get floor boards in the attic of the garage so it is easier to get things in and out and also need to get some finish on the chairs by the pool.  We just have to work those things in between tennis!
We purchased new tires yesterday.  We priced them out at Goodyear, a tire center and at Costco.  The "out the door cost" varied by over $400.  Which is the best deal I wonder?
A new approach this morning.  I waited with my FP until now so I can sign off and THEN enjoy that wonderful FP down to the last drop.
