Christmas In Morro Bay...and the New D90!!!

All I can say is that I am NOT thrilled to be back in Cd'A...

We got back last night to a rain/snow mixture...black ice on the roads...and miserably cold.  On my drive to go pick up Bentley from the dog sitters...I got hit by another car, and my car is now dented in pretty good.  The worst part about it is that the car RAN!  Stupid...I bonked my head on the window...and I have a slight headache...but it is going away.  The snow berms are taller than I am...so there it is a leap of faith that no cars are coming at every intersection to stop at.  Well...turns out there was a car coming this time.  My car has had some bad luck this past year...with three accidents.  Grr. 

BUT...California was AWESOME!  I absolutely love it down there.  Christmas was fun, but of course it didn't feel like Christmas!  I got surprised with a WONDERFUL new big camera!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT.  The Nikon D90.  Thank you to all who helped buy it for me!  Here is some of the pictures...with some lightroom modifications...
