Christmas is around the corner
Summer officially came to an end last weekend and fall is now
upon us. Many leaves are already turning and the nights and
mornings are really cooling off. It’s going to be Christmas before
we know it!

On Sunday, the King City Riding Club hosted its final playday of the year. They had a great turnout as everyone was competing for some great awards. After the gymkhana, the riding club hosted a delicious, Steve Rianda-style BBQ. Whenever a Rianda is doing the cooking, you can count on delicious food! Thanks to the riding club for another great year and for some wonderful awards.
Last Saturday evening, Todd and I were treated to a special night as my dad’s company was celebrating its 25th anniversary. Todd and I were picked up by a limousine, and taken to a black tie dinner at the Pebble Beach Country Club for dinner and dancing. My dad knew we would never find the place so he graciously arranged for transportation for us. Besides Todd and me, my brother from Reno and his family enjoyed the limo ride, along with my sisters and their husbands. I also got to meet my new 8-month-old nephew and my 7-week-old great niece for the first time. It was a wonderful, quick family reunion that didn’t last long enough. Congratulations to my Dad on such a successful evening.
