Happy Anniversary.

I wrote this for my lovely wife Lisa as a gift for our anniversary, which is today. Thirteen years married, twenty-two together as a couple.

(It was raining really hard outside my window during this… some of it is audible, especially at the end.)

Here’s to you, darlin’. I love you.

Venus, named after the goddess of love, and a young new crescent moon put on a great light show last night. They looked incredibly close to each other in the night sky. February marks the pinnacle of evening visibility of Venus and last night was its greatest brilliance.

Last night was among the best evenings of the year for novice star gazers. Hopefully you caught a glimpse of it. If not, here’s the next best thing.

Happy Valentine’s Day.

Snow Day.

It was raining really hard yesterday, and when the clouds parted we could see some snow up on the mountains by our house. Taking a chance that it wouldn’t melt quickly, we packed the kids in the car and headed up to Figueroa mountain. There was plenty at the top. We found a nice, level spot where there was lots of untouched snow. Many snowballs were thrown, and the kids made a snowman they named Mr. Angry Eyes.

Snow is such a gift here in Santa Barbara. We only get it once a year in the mountains if we’re lucky, so I’m glad we got a chance to go up this year.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Happy Holidays!
