[Dangerous Doug]

Deerskin driving gloves---for those cool Winter morning drives (brrrrr... 50F...). Very nice.

Also, some cash, which will likely be spent guilt-free on the Cobra. Trying to decide on glass windwings for my windshield, or a racing windscreen (drivers side bubble).

We had a "lean year" this year, but it really didn't take away anything at all from the Holiday Spirit. Good friends, cheerful family, most everyone is healthy, and employed. This, with a backdrop of reports from my two twin nieces who are spending a year on North Africa in an exchange program. We underestimate the value of living in a highly developed country.
