It's January 5 in Santa Barbara, and it's raining. I really don't mind, however, because a) we haven't seen much of that here in quite a while, and b) it's reminding me a lot of being in San Antonio last weekend! Yes, as I told you before, my angel of a wife gave me a trip to the Alamo Bowl for my Christmas gift. I'd been very excited for weeks, and then, well, Boykin-gate happened. That put a bit of a damper on things, eh?
Nevertheless, the drive down the coast from Santa Barbara to the Bob Hope Airport in Burbank on January 1st was a beautiful crystal clear day.
