2018 Snowy End of November at Hofma Preserve to Sunny Texas in Early December

 
Today is December 28th 2018.
 
This adventure in the snow is from a month ago,
November 27th 2018.

From this beautiful but cold weather, I flew to Texas for a visit with our oldest son and his family.  It was sunny in Texas, and warm. 
 Michigan - on the way to the airport.
  Still Michigan, still snow.

 Up in the air, blue sky and sunshine!

 Flying into Dallas, no snow.

Busy Dallas airport, no snow.  All by myself.


 Flying into Midland passed bedtime!

I had a fun visit with the grandkids, son, and daughter-in-law.  With the nice weather, we were outside much of the time.  We went for walks, went to a Christmas play, played and worked in the yard.  One night we went out to eat at the Midland Beer Garden.  They have a huge tortoise that you can feed and pet.  And while we ate outside, we got to paint ceramic gnomes. Seriously.  Great place for the younger kids to be able to run around and dance to the music.
 That's our granddaughter Finley who just turned 4 years old and grandson Harrison 22 months.  Two major reasons to take myself out of my comfort zone at home and travel all the way to Texas!

Next time the (almost) snowless adventures from the month of December!
