    Post Your Christmas Loot

     



    Quiet year here, what with work cutbacks, and such, but I still got a nice Dewalt cordless drill, and a set of standard old style screw drivers from Garrett Wade. I also bought myself a set of rear leaf springs for the old truck, with a little help from Mike52!
    Post up some chrtistmas cheer, and share if you would like!

    I got this ring from my wife. I thought it was pretty cool, it even has my logo on it!

    Experience has been a brutal but effective teacher.

    Cool ring, Hawk! Looks like Titanium.

    We decided to focus on the little kids in our family gathering, so the adults drew names with a $25 limit. My haul was a pair of DVD movies, Bullitt and American Graffiti - we watched Graffiti last night after the kids were gone, and it was great!! The production notes after the show (collector's edition) were really interesting, giving lots of insight into the struggles they went through to get Graffiti to the screen.

    My favorite loot and I didn't even have to unwrap them.
    This wasn't all but a large majority of "our" gifts.

    Yep family is the best! My wife unfortunately was away with her family in southern california, as I had to work Christmas eve and day, only to be called off due to no patients in our department! Sucks to not be able to gather with family this time of year! I did get to do a day trip to Mendocino Nt. Forest for some quail hunting with a few friends, but would of loved a big Christmas feast dinner with Prime Rib, and yorkshire pudding, at the inlaws! If they lived a little closer say 500 miles closer, I would of driven down once I was called off yesterday afternoon, but it's an 8-9 hour drive from here, so the doggies and I had our own quiet celebration, watching a few movies including part of the John Wayne marathon on tv, and parts of the raiders of the lost arc series! Not too bad!

    Hope you can work out a Big Family Gathering next year Stovens - - - - - my Mom died in January, leaving me as the eldest, so getting together with my family was especially important and "comforting" to me this year.

    Christmas Eve we skyped with one boy and his family as he is stationed in Virgina Beach It was fun and the wife hasn't seen those two grand daughters in awhile. The rest of the kids called and we talked. With every one grown up and gone its realy hard to get every one to gether at one time. The wife and I went to church Christmas morning, came home and started fixing diner.. Not hard just the two of us. Ham, corn, potatos, brusel sprouts, and a bunch of other veges. Then we watched her favorite movie "White Christmas" I got her the dvd for Christmas. Then watched the Bears loose. Wasn't long after that we got another phone call fron one of the kids in Iowa. We will be having the fourteenth grand kid in May. Now what more could you want. OH yes the wife bought me a 1/2" drive metric impact socket set and a spool of .035 wire for the welder "She Loves ME". Hope every one else had a great day

    "White Christmas" is one of my favorites also and I managed to watch the reruns 3 1/2 times this year.
    The Wiffy is good for one rerun but she makes me go in the other room on the 2nd, 3rds and ETC.

    So Steve, as a Petaluma resident did you know that the first "day" of filming of American Grafitti was in San Jose, essentially from 9pm to 6am? They ran into camera mount difficulties, lost at least 1/2 day and then the next morning the city fathers told them that they were rejecting the contract and they were no longer welcome in San Jose. George Lucas went to Petaluma who opened their arms to the film crew, and the rest is history. They did use some cruise scenes from San Jose to broaden the cars seen, but not being familiar with the cities I have no idea which scenes might be San Jose vs Petaluma.
