I managed to bruise my lower back severely on the first Sunday of winter break skiing with my daughters.  It was great to be able to go with them and they looked after me for the rest of the day.  Yes I kept skiing.  We got to visit my dad at his house in the desert which was great too.
In Santa Rosa, I connected  with a cabinet shop and now have a source for wood for the Miniatures Club project at my favorite price.
