THE CREW WENT TO THE "FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS"

On December 30th the Temecula Crew went to see the "festival of lights" at the Wild Animal Park In San Diego. There was even snow falling at the park, unbelievable being that we are in Southern California! The highlight of the evening was Laurie and Lee taking a hot air balloon ride. The balloon went up 500ft and from what the girls said the view was tremendous.

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2008!!
