Thanksgiving Weekend in Harrison.
The month after our wedding has been pretty busy. It consisted of spending time with out-of-towners, dropping off the last few wedding payments, picking up pictures, getting Cathy's name changed at various institutions, celebrating Cathy's Birthday (yup she's 21 again!), redeeming the free round of Golf we won at the wedding fair, seeing Tanya and Duncan's new baby girl Emily (congrats!), going back to work for both of us, attending a real estate investment seminar, running miscellaneous errands, and of course a whole lotta house cleaning. We still need to do the thank you cards as well as a whole lot MORE house cleaning.
Needless to say, we wanted to run away. So off we went to Harrison Hot Springs, which is famous for, well, its hotsprings. We spent most of the weekend getting our skin perfectly prune-like in the hotspring pool, but we took some breaks to play a round of minigolf, walk around the Agassiz strip (not much to see there), and check out the Annual Sand Sculpture Championships from a distance. From a distance, you say? Yes. Sadly, we are broke from our wedding, so the $7 admission per person seemed a bit much. As Cathy said, "We're on vacation, but it's not THAT much of a vacation..." Check out the picture if you're curious to see the frugal way of admiring the sand sculptures. That, my friends, is Ghetto...

Dave: Aren't monthly updates enough? Besides, it's all about quality, not quantity. Having said that, I seem to have neither... :-P
Ray: Harrison _is_ expensive. But that's what credit is for!! I figured if I can pay for our apartment our car, and some of the wedding expenses using credit, what's a weekend getaway... ;-)
