It snowed 4-6 weeks early this year and the kids
enjoyed a snow day on the 5th. Jeff had to go to work in 4 inches
of snow and came home in the afternoon with 8 inches of snow on the
ground. As of the 11th, half of the snow has melted away.

Christmas dinner at Betsi's Dad and step
Mom's house in Reston.
Jeff was able to fly with his Dad for a fourth time
on an empty leg of returning the plane home, but this was his first
ride on a business jet. If you make millions a year, this is
the way to travel. Drive the limo up to the plane, no
lines, no waiting, no lost luggage, non-stop flight, and free drinks.
At US$1,900/hour, it's not exactly cheap. The hour is
measured when the engines are on (ground and air) and include the
return trip home, even if you aren't on the flight.
Jeff's Dad loves flying and has a hard time adjusting to more than
2 days of not flying. He loves the jets more since they fly
higher, further, and faster than the propellered planes he also flies.
