Yesterday, I flew to upstate New York on my annual trip to New York. My grandmother and I flew from San Fransisco to Newark, New Jersey. Then to Ithaca, New York. When we got to New York, my grandparent's neighbor picked us up at the airport. When we got the farm, I was very tired, for I had not slept on the plane. I sat down on the living room couch and feel asleep. I was asleep for three hours.
Before dinner, I found my grandparent's old Lionel train set. I took everything out of the boxes and set up and oval. I found two transformers that worked. I got one train going around in circles (barely).

Braces
Last Wednesday, I had braces put in. I will have to have them for two years. It took them about an hour to install them. It was painless. Later that day, the pain began. It hurt all over. I have a piece of metal sticking into my cheek (which is the main cause of pain), which I might have fixed on Monday. Overall, my teeth feel sore.

Master Bedroom Closet Remodel
Six years ago, we gutted the master bedroom closet and ripped out the six layers of disgusting laminate. Last week, we got new LED lights put in and drywall. Yesterday, I oiled all the old door knob mechanisms. Today, I am taking the nails and staples out of the floor. On Monday, the drywall should be done and we can start painting and installing molding.

Kirkwood Spring Skiing
This weekend, I went skiing at Kirkwood. We stayed at our friends ski house. On Wednesday, my mom and her friends drove up. On Friday, my dad dropped me of at our friends office then I went up. We got to Kirkwood at 10:15.
On Saturday, we went skiing. It was a warm 60 F. We started skiing at about 10:45. The snow was slushy and wet. I wore my t-shirt and the only line we had to wait in was the rental line.
After skiing, we went into the hot tub and played hide-and-go-seek in the whole hotel.
Today, my mom and I drove home. When we left Kirkwood, it was about 65 F. When we got to the central valley, it was 80 F. We stopped at a strawberry stand and a market. We made it home in 3 hours.

New Trees
Yesterday, we bought a peach tree and a plum tree. We put them on the wasteland next to our back driveway.
Last summer, I put in sprinklers planning on putting trees there and finally we put trees there. Today, we put a brick border along the driveway, planted small shrubs, and of course the chicken fence to protect our investment.
In the future we plan to put a small brick patio at the end for a potted plant.

Skiing Kirkwood
Last weekend, friends of our invited us to spend the weekend at their ski house at Kirkwood. They have two kids that are friends of mine. We drove up friday and skied saturday, Sunday and Monday, then drove back monday.
We mostly skied blues and blacks (diamonds). We could also walk from the apartment directly to the lifts (what a concept). Sunday was the biggest ski day at Kirkwood. It was reported that over 7,000 people were on the slopes that day. That day, there were also many power outages for the Kirkwood valley. One time, we were waiting on the chair lift for 15 minutes.
Each day after skiing, we played hide and go seek, in the entire hotel.
On Sunday, we ate dinner at the Kirkwood inn. Then, on Monday we explored a small cave in a ditch, then drove all the back.
