We spent the first part of our Christmas vacation in Hampstead, hanging out with Tyson, Sarah, and Tatiana's parents. The earlier part of the month had been very hectic, with Tatiana finishing multiple projects relating to her first semester of the PhD program, while I graded exams.
From Maryland, we made the 12-hour drive to western Michigan on Dec 27th. No problems on the trip, since the major snowstorm coming in that day stayed well to the east, along the coast. In Michigan we were able to ski several times before the weather warmed up, including a nice 
all-day outing at Big M. Mike and Susanna were around for several days too. We were able to visit other family too, including Aunt Helen, and Uncle Gord and Aunt Saramae. On the way home, we took an alternate route via I-80 in western PA and Us 322 to Harrisburg - a nice change from the usual turnpike.

Now it's on to other winter challenges, including the start of a new semester (for me) and prepping a new class for the UD semester that starts in a couple of weeks (for Tatiana). And for the fun stuff - we have three weekend ski trips to WV and NY planned during the next two months. Yeah for snow!!
