Wow its Christmas and all that!

For you that do not live in the Yukon area, let me invite you to swing by if you can.  The city of Yukon puts on one of the best Christmas light shows I have ever seen. This year there should be over 4 million lights. Yes that is over 4,000,000 or you could say there is a bunch.   It looks something like this…

 

 

 

 

 

On Thursday Linda, Josh and I will be volunteering at the park to collect donations. Last year we looked like this

 Josh was cold…

 (could not find a picture of Josh... Man that is odd)

 

Linda was cold…

 

I was Rudolf…

 

Time to head home

Woke up this morning to say our goodbyes, a bittersweet time.

 

 

The path out of town is not very straight. We first stopped off at the Hat for lunch, By far some of the best Pastrami on the planet. No photos, the pastrami did not last that long.

Next stop was Space Bank Mini Storage, We had a nice talk with my old General Manager Mike.  His claim to fame is that he knows everyone , and he will be the 2016 Tournament of Roses President. 

 

To say that it was a different place to work is an understatement. One of the owners is the founder of the Pasadena Museum of California Art.  So you never know what  you will see hanging around.

 

 

The office I started in.  It has had a face lift since I started. The original office was what was left over from the Navy. We upgraded to this configuration in 1998.  The oldest photo of the property hangs in the office.  The best guess is that this would be in 1950’s or early 60’s.

 

After that we stopped at Trader Joe’s. Once again no photos we were too busy shopping. Since Oklahoma Liquor laws are keeping Joe out of the state, we will stock up on 2 buck Chuck whenever we get near a TJ’s.

By this time we have hit the heart of rush hour traffic (which starts at 2:00pm and last till 8:00, 9:00 and sometimes 10:00 pm). It was not as bad as it could have been but 45 mph on a 5 lane highway was the top speed and a complete stop was quite often.

 

Traffic is not one of the things I miss.

 

 

Since we were moving slow I got a nice shot of the back of Vasquez rocks.  For you out there that may not know Vasquez Rocks is the famous location where Captain Kirk Defeated the Gorn Captain in the original Star Trek series. Also there have been thousands of westerns filmed out there.
