I hope everyone was good and got a visit from Santa.

Automotive wise my wife got me a set of floor mats for the Lightning. I have been saying I was going to get some for over a year now. They also got me a Mickey mouse coffee mug and warming mat set.

I found the leak in my hot tub!!! Got it fixed, filled and it's heating up. I missed using that thing especially when my lower back is hurting.

Kind of glad that Christmas is over. Get a little rest today, and back to the grind tomorrow. Hugh, safe travels tomorrow.

I know the feeling Bob. It was little mans first Christmas so it was fun and he learned how to rip open presents. Good thing it's a short work week this week and next week too. Safe travels Hugh.

I have to install some tow mirrors on the daughters truck this weekend. Most of my tools are at work so I have to make a special effort to remember to bring some home to work on stuff.

The wife and I had a serious talk about the Disney trip last night. We looked at all the room options and she decided we really did need a motorhome. With at least an 8 hour trip she really liked the idea of having a kitchen, bathroom and bed on the move. She did not want to be cramped up in the SUV for that long.

With so many choices today, I would take my time, and rent a few that you may like before spending the big bucks. Just my 2 cents worth.

Oh how things change in 24 hours.

Grandma has decided she would rather not go and my daughter and her boyfriend broke up so he's not going. So it's down to me, the wife and the kids. With just the 4 of us going we have decided to just stay in a Disney hotel. I want another motorhome and probibly will get another one next year but there is no big rush. I miss my old Winnebago but it helped me figure out what I want in my next one.

My little man turns one year old today !!! I sure do love my little guy.
