Two posts in one day...don't miss the Christmas post below...but on to the New Year. After Christmas we headed off to camp at Santa Margarita Lake for the New Year and The Running Chicken race event.
Mike makes a pine needle basket
from the needles in our site.
Bixby comes to stay with us for New Years Eve,
We celebrate with card games
and he made us a charcuterie platter
Fun was had in the top bunk
Kelly joined us on New Years Day.
On Sunday morning we awoke to a frosty scene
Mike captures an icicle on the RV window
Kelly and I headed off to "run" the 5k race honoring
Brynn and Bitti Frace, 2 sisters who died tragically
in a car accident a few years ago.
They were very active runners in the area
and their family foundation raises money for scholarships.
Kelly used to work with their father, Warren.
We both always meet up with people that we know there.
The crowds pour in.
We line up for the start
And we are off.
Look closely and you will see
Kelly and I in the middle of the crowd.
She is wearing a pink jacket, and you can see my "blond" hair
We enjoyed fast walking and chatting
with my friend Chris.
We didn't take our own pictures,
but I took some off the web site.
After a Jimmy Hendrix version of the anthem
Photos were taken along the trail.
Chris's son Matthew runs the 10K.
Signs of encouragement along the way
At the finish, pancakes are served
and games are played.
She is mixing the batter !!!
Its a great event for all ages.
