Merry Christmas friends and family; Feliz Navidad

It's December 23rd, 2010.  I've been to the market in La Penita; hubby is golfing at Mens' Day at Campo Ensuenado (sp?).  I am making stuffing and Mike is doing Caesar salad for Xmas dinner at the park down the street.  We are so few here that we, being Mike, Mave, Vic and Bev, were invited to El Caracol rv park to have Christmas dinner.
I picked up five heads of romaine, some garlic powder and whole garlic for the famous Lori's Caesar Salad dressing.  I bought a very fresh loaf of white bread which I have already cut up into thin slices to dry for making the stuffing, and some potatoes and onions.  The bread was so good I had to steal a few slices for myself.  Nothing like fresh white bread and strawberry jam for lunch. The market was very crowded today and the traffic on the highway was heavy.  We were going to P.V. for Xmas dinner but the hostess has decided to go back to Edmonton for Christmas leaving her hubby in good hands.
I'm missing my kids.  Only daughter is in Vancouver and I just wish she could have made it out here.  I know she would have loved the beach.  The waves are very quiet this visit.  Last visit they were noisy and strong.  Hubby has only used his boogie board twice so far. 
Only son and lady partner are in Tucson living the rv lifestyle.  Hubby isn't back from golfing yet so I might go to the beach or just lie on my zero gravity chair and have a snooze.  In case you haven't seen it yet, here is a picture of our beach.  It is exactly 260 steps from our park's front gate.  This is a photo from January 2010 when we first came out here, but it's still the same beautiful beach.  You can see why we came back.
