75 and sunny.
Our xmas tree. Going with the theme since we just planted 9 date palms in the yard. The yellow ornaments are immature dates. I ordered some lights for it. I buried one more drip line for the palms this afternoon. John buried the ones in the front. After all the planting and stump grinding there was extra dirt in the yard. John decided one area was so low that there would be a lake when it rains. So he is working on drainage for it.

This gopher was bobbing up and down out of it's hole while we watched. Not afraid of us. To warm up the road runners fluff up their feathers and expose a black patch of skin on their backs as a solar collector. Our mother HATED gophers. They ate up her garden. If she saw one, our sweet, little gray haired mother would become crazed , and grab a butcher knife and stab it. Judy demonstrating! Judy did not kill it.
I hung up xmas lights all around the windows, trim and door with a staple gun. I plugged them in and they didn't work. Guess I stapled through a wire. . . John still working on his drainage ditch the next day.
Sunset tonight.
Second time is the charm I hung new lights on the front of the house and these work. The bar at the Crowbar with Bri our waitress photobombing.
Jill arrived to day for the holidays Judy took us out to dinner. John and Judy got the fence put back together ( it had to be taken down to grind the stump) and John finished his drainage masterpiece.
Sunset tonight.
Happy hour watching the sunset. Judy is the same size as John and Jill, not sure why she looks so small in this photo.
