Crazy Saturday

This last Saturday was one of the craziest days I have had in quite a while. First, Elizabeth, Jon and I went to the Wild Animal Park with Elizabeth's twin Kathryn, her husband Ben, and their daughter Kelly. Then, after enduring a few hours in the cold rain at the Animal Park we all decided that we would go over to Julian to eat dinner and buy some apple pie.

So we left the Park and started on our way. When we arrived to Julian the entire town was covered with dense fog. It was also very windy and very very cold. Because we all had just come from a climate that was about 25 degrees cooler, we were not quite equipped for the cold. So we all put on whatever warm clothes we could find in our cars and made due. Elizabeth had a harder time than the rest of us because she was the only one in sandals. So while the rest of us were trying to find a restaurant she was trying to find some shoes to buy. Luckily she found some warm shoes and was able to join us in time to order dinner. After dinner we bought some pies and went on our merry way. By the time we left the misty air turned to ice cold rain. We were glad to be back in our warm car. On the way home we had to travel through thick fog, strong wind and rain. At one point we had to stop because a tree fell on the road and crews had to clear a way for traffic to pass. We soon made it home safely, only to get ready for my work Christmas party.

A couple hours later we arrived to the cocktail party and mingled with my coworkers. The party was held at Epizotes in Del Mar. We had a lot of fun. We chatted, tried some crazy looking food and danced. We left at about 10:40pm and drove up to Encinitas to pick up Jon. We finally arrived home at about 11:30pm. At that time I had to begin my Gospel Doctrine Lesson for the next morning. Eventually I made it to bed. I am not sure on the time but let me just say that I had an awesome nap Sunday afternoon.
