$1.95 gasoline? I never thought I would see this day again!

Can you believe it?? We are back below $2 a gallon for gas. According to my mom, in South Carolina, where the gas taxes are lower, it is going for $1.63 a gallon!

Snow!

We got our first bit of snow of the season this morning. It was a little harry driving down the country road I live on to get out to the highway...but the way to Sylva was clear and by the time I arrived at work there were no flakes falling. It is amazing how much a difference 30 miles and 1,000 feet can make.

Home Again, Election and New Puppie!

Well, sorry it took so long to write an update but things have been hectic since we got back to the USA. The trip back was fine...but exhausting. Here is a tip...never go through JFK if you can avoid it.

First a brief word on the outcome of the election....NORTH CAROLINA IS BLUE!!!!!

Yesterday, Lauren, Gavin and I went to Charlotte to pick up the newest addition to our family...Milli! She is a 10 week old black and tan mini-dachshund. Isn't she the cutest?
