Not a lot going on!

Well, we managed to make things calm and comfortable at home again so there isn't a lot to report.  Well, a little.

Went to our daughter's in Las Vegas for a Thanksgiving luncheon.  It ended about 3 pm and we headed off home.  That means going up through a 5,400 ft pass (1,600m) and, since it was raining in Las Vegas, it was snowing on the pass.  The bottom line is that we've never driven the Escape in anything over rain.  As it happens, it turned out really well!  We'd be stopped and giving the gas a little touch, the car moved ahead very easily.  Since the traffic was moving at about 1 mph, that worked going up hill.  Coming down, we gave the car ahead lots of room but braking was never a problem either.  So, we're thrilled!

Other than that, it's a quiet time.  We are looking for a dog to make our house stinky again but it's a work in progress.  We'd really like a shelter dog but we'll see.  Sorry for the short update but it's quiet around here!  Take care.
