It was nearing the end of another year and so it was time to take stock of the various things that hadn't been done in the year and of other things that would be fun as the year wound down. There was also the challenge of seeing how many pictures would be taken this year.

On Monday December 27, the kids and I drove Suzanne to the airport so that she could spend a few days in Pittsburgh visiting Norma. Then we went to lunch and devoured Ben's meal even though the potato salad gave me indigestion for a few days. Maybe that is why Ben is laughing? Jane cleared away her food though the french (aka freedom) fries were a group effort. After Jane took these pictures of me and Sarah who sat on the other side, I took this artistic photo of the Marathon Restaurant and we headed to the Mutter Museum but there was no photography allowed there and maybe for good reason.
