Christmas lights on the way to work, likely among the last I'll see this year. 

Mum mailed my Christmas presents on December 12th and they arrived today.  Well done USPS. I mailed mine to her on the same day and she got them December 19th. I'm just grateful these finally made it!

Always love seeing this flag on Rte 50. It's enormous.

Saw these at the gun show. Zombie bullets? Would anyone actually buy these? The gun show was the largest it's ever been at Dulles, the new proposed gun laws are making people panic buy.

Another party, this time the DCUE Crew at Liz's house, and Margie was struggling to stay awake to the amusement of Walter and Richard. An excellent evening ending with me getting home at 3 am. Whew!

After a huge breakfast at the local diner we all hiked for about 6 miles at the battlefields to blast away the last remnants of hangovers. This beautiful fungi was growing on a rotting fallen tree.

Seeing in the New Year with a party at Meadow House. Sitting round the fire pit, with some fireworks and beer, champagne and shots. A fun night!
