Steve was laid off on Tuesday along with 100 other employees at Atmel.  Seems Atmel has done this the last four years out of five.  Why do so many companies lay off right before Christmas?  It would have been nice if Steve could have worked just a few more months but oh well.  No job = more time = more play = being more careful with money.

There is a small vacation apartment in the RV park owners’ house that is available from Jan 1st to Jan 11th so my mom will stay in it until the 9th when she flies back to Colorado.  Steve will fly down in about a week, probably the 1st.  I just need to find out if the busses run on that day.  It will be fun to explore the area with Steve.

These are a few of the views from our RV site.
