I know it’s been a full week since the last post.  Several events occurred that were worth talking about, but I was either busy at those events or I was working.

Last Thursday night was the annual Christmas Dinner for the Kansas City Cigar Aficionado Club – of which I’m a founding member.  The picture above is me with my best friend, Krishna, and his wife, Amanda.  It was a wonderful meal followed by a cigar that was given to us by a fellow club member that had died the previous month.  One of his dying wishes was to have his favorite cigar distributed to the members at the dinner.  What a great way to remember Bob.

Saturday night found us at The National Golf Club of Kansas City in Parkeville, MO.  What a stunningly beautiful place.  This was the annual Christmas party for my two hospitals.  Linda and I had so much fun spending time with my colleagues in a non-medical environment.  The food was even better and the free wine tasting was fabulous.

Sunday night found us across the street at our neighbors house for the annual block Christmas party.  Catching up with neighbors is nice – but getting to know new neighbors is even better.

The next few nights found me at work and not really around to see what was going on around the house.  Most importantly, no photos of things happening here.  I  hope to do a better job of this over the next couple weeks before Christmas arrives.  The girls only have a few more days of school and Linda is already done teaching for the semester.  Seems to me next week shouldn’t be near as busy.
