We went up to Sea Ranch for a little pre-Thanksgiving R&R. We rented this
house on the meadow. It was also just a short hike to One-Eyed-Jack's Playground and Shell Beach. Every morning, we saw deer grazing in the meadow. It was a nice lazy vacation. Daddy baked a big ham the first day, so we feasted on ham every day - ham steaks, ham & eggs, grilled ham & cheese, ham salad, etc. Mommy & Daddy got some reading in while I was introduced to our portable DVD player. I watched the Dora DVD that Khai gave me for Halloween over and over. We took walks every day, rain or shine. If it was raining, we took cover underneath the cypress trees. If it was sunny, I got to

slide and swing at One-Eyed-Jack's or play in the sand at Shell Beach. We did a photo shoot for our Holiday photo card beneath the trees at One-Eyed-Jack's, and later took a family photo at The Sea Ranch Chapel. Mommy & Daddy originally wanted to get married at the Chapel, but it could only hold 20 people. So, instead, they exchanged their vows on the bluff top overlooking the ocean at The Sea Ranch Lodge. It was a really nice getaway. Can't wait to come back again.
