Time is certainly flying by - November went by in a flash of end of season stuff, a wedding in Hilton Head, winter shopping, and a large Thanksgiving feast here in Jawbone.
Joe's little sister Sheena got married in Hilton Head in early November - so we made the journey to South Carolina to join in the festivities. Good times, great weather, and lots of good folks. We saw lots of great birds, dolphins and alligators!
Just married! Dolphins even showed up for the ceremony!

We returned from Hilton Head for the last week of the season, wrapped up projects, and had our end of year celebrations. Another successful season in Jawbone Flats - great staff and great programs. Winter shopping, the supplying for 4 months of winter, took much of our time with many trips to the city. The fraud department from the bank kept calling on all the unusual charges - could have been the $1000 at the butcher that raised their eyebrows!
And before we knew it - Thanksgiving was here. We hosted 50 of our nearest and dearest here in Jawbone. Five birds in all - two smoked, two oven roasted, and one bacon infused oven roasted. In addition - 22 desserts, and more sides than you can imagine. It was a wonderful feast - full of great food, good friends, and lots of laughs. Our stomachs hurt for days from the laughing and the food!

Jackie and I - we love to laugh...and always find ourselves very amusing!
That's all for now. Winter is here, no snow yet - but the sun sets behind the ridge at 11am in Jawbone, a sure sign of the season. We are looking forward to a Jawbone Christmas this year - but will miss all of our friends and family back east. Next year...
Hope you are all well and enjoying the holiday season. We should have more time to update this more regularly now that the slower season is here, so check back in on us again soon.
Much peace and love to you all,
Katie and Joe
