Holiday Road: Day 2

Saturday, December 22

Left Medford and drove to Aunt Carol and Uncle Ralph’s house in Lafayette, CA. Carol made delicious vegetarian chili and we were joined by Cousins David and Danielle. After dinner, we took the dogs for a walk on a local multi-use path and saw some cool Christmas lights. After talking books vacuum cleaner for pet reviews for a bit, I traded my copy of The Professor and the Madman for Ralph’s copy of My Name Is Red. Before bed we all exchanged gifts and Carol gave everyone a CD for the road.

This guy also had a three-legged pit bull with him. It took me several minutes before I noticed the snake wrapped around his neck. He claimed the dog liked having the snake wrapped around him but the dog wasn’t too keen when he demonstrated for everyone.

I declined to inform him of TriMet’s anti-pet rules.
