Yesterday afternoon Nina and I drove over to Soda Springs to spend a few hours with mother and dad. As is usual, Nina put together a meal (very yummy meatloaf this time) to take over with us. We had a delightful visit and dinner. Dad was having some trouble getting the snowblower to start, so we worked on that and got it running. I ran it on their driveway clearing off about four inches of snow that had accumulated. Nina and mother put up their Christmas tree in the living room (Dad didn’t think they needed a tree this year since they weren’t going to be home for Christmas. Nina and mother, of course, had a different idea).<\/p>\n
Just before we left, I had mother and then dad sit down with me to make a couple of short Seesmic videos with their Christmas greetings. I thought they came out quite nicely. Mothers video is at http:\/\/seesmic.com\/uFghwAJD64<\/a> and dad’s video is at http:\/\/seesmic.com\/3LLcekQhOA<\/a>. I posted the videos and we packed up to come back home to Pocatello.<\/p>\n After getting home I plugged my Macbook back in and saw a note from our son James on Twitter saying, “You need to look at the replies to your posts!!” I opened Seesmic and found five replies to the videos I had put up:<\/p>\n Click on the links and enjoy the responses as well. It’s a nice set of Christmas greetings back from a delightful community. Hopefully the links will work. If not, please try again later. Seesmic is Alpha software and is going through some growing pains right now which I’m sure will be fixed Real Soon Now.<\/p>\n Merry Chistmas!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yesterday afternoon Nina and I drove over to Soda Springs to spend a few hours with mother and dad.
