Mid-Winter Dinner


Last night we attended the Midwinter Dinner. It's the
one time during the winter when the Galley looks a lot
less like the Galley and more like a restaurant. The
food was great, the decorations were wonderful, the crowd
was smartly dressed and the company was a hoot! I'm
pretty sure a good time was had by all.

Good Times!


Even though we have to work on Mid-Winter's Day and the
folks in the Denver Office get to have a company-paid
picnic on the same day, it looks like a few of our folks
from the Ice snuck off and joined the fun!


And look...they even took the kids! Good times had by all!
