J and I enjoyed an extended Thanksgiving break this year. It all began with a wonderful Thanksgiving meal in my parents' backyard. We had beautiful weather, with the high temperature being about 80 degrees (the thermometer in the yard reads a little on the warm side):
Instead of turkey, we continued our Thanksgiving steak tradition. This year the grill master cooked a delicious flank steak. But first we had to kill the cow:

After Thanksgiving, J traveled to Boston to present at a conference. He also did some sightseeing, including having dinner at the German brewhouse called Jacob Wirth, which is the second-oldest restaurant in Boston:
I was able to spend the week with my parents. We did a lot of shopping, including some much-needed Christmas gift shopping. Additionally, we went on a historic tour of Pensacola on an 1880s replica streetcar. We had a private tour that consisted of 66 different places of interest, including a stop for gelato at Joe Patti's World Famous Seafood Market:
It was a great week - but it went by way too fast!
