Red Echo

December 29, 2009

Back from California, where I spent Christmas at my mom’s place, with Ava, and most of my siblings. It was a short visit since I couldn’t take much time off work, but it was good to see everyone. We went to see “Avatar”, spent a day in San Francisco getting rained on, romped around in the snow at Echo Summit, and then went home. Now it’s time for work again.

Happy to say the latest TSA craziness had no effect on our flight. I wish there were some way to fly Seaport all the way down to Sacramento.

Rental car was really unsatisfactory: do not buy a Dodge Caliber. Gutless engine, ugly styling, squirrely steering, and it was hard to see out of the scrunched-down windows. The only thing I liked about it was the red inset panel on the upholstery.
