So, full disclosure: we didn’t actually post a Christmas 2024 page. So, we’re posting this a year late. Surprise!

We had some good times together in 2024. Beth got to touch an elephant, crossing a long-standing item off her “life list.” We were fortunate to be able to travel several times (for work and for pleasure) to places including a cruise to the Bahamas, Seaside, San Diego, much of Washington state, Minneapolis, San Antonio, Orlando, and back to Washington, D.C. The highlight was definitely our stops at three National Parks in Washington: North Cascades, Olympic, and Mount Rainier. (If you haven’t tried a Rainier cherry, you are definitely missing out.) As always, Gidget enjoyed the sunshine and trips to the dog park. Here are a few snapshots from 2024:
