Lets try a mystery photo:<\/div>\n

No mystery in this photo. We celebrated xmas a few days early and picked up a new car last week!<\/div>\n
\n

It is a 2016 KIA Soul. Pretty well decked out with a big control panel, sunroof, and leather, but less expensive than you might expect with a year end discount to $22k. A boxy funky but practical car with lots of room considering its length:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We enjoyed the xmas break, especially the weather at 70+ degrees. This was my xmas garb for today (sorry MT and MN folk, just had to jab you a little):<\/div>\n

A clue to the mystery photo \u2026 zoomed out just a little to include an eyeball:<\/div>\n

Remember last months magic opossum<\/a> ? I caught him on camera again, this time close up. And I took a daytime tour of his lair:<\/div>\n

I did not get my arm bit off, but Helen said I really stank afterwards. I think rolled around in some possum poo.<\/div>\n
I completed my new big trail loop. I\u2019ll spare you the video this time, but will make you suffer through some more before\/after shots:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

That sitting rock by the shovel in the above right after shot was a challenge! I moved it, very slowly, about 20 feet. On the left in this shot:<\/div>\n

I shared some phone tips in my geek video this month, highlighting Helen\u2019s new phone with a 5 day battery life:<\/div>\n
