I have to say, being home for the holidays is a great feeling. This afternoon, I will celebrate with my son, my brother, his lady love, and my parents. I am off for my two hour walk this morning. During that walk, I will spend time thinking about how grateful I have been for this past year and how I have learnt from so many people and friends. I will think of my friends around the world, especially in Fort Atkinson, Saint Louis, Boston, NYC, London, Birmingham, Paris and Menton. Friends make you feel at home wherever you are!
Merry Christmas from San Jose, California!
