Sorry I've been slacking off, all, I spent three days being murdered by friends high in the PacNW. This friend is another MSr I met online and became a great one by phone. We had been waiting over a year to do this and it was super hard to part last night. Even CBK was weeping.

No, Sal, not quite homeward bound just yet. Today is the dreaded day as I go south of Seattle, and once there, I will balance my checkbook. The way home could be long or quite abbreviated once I get that bottom line filled in. I've been avoiding it like the plague!

I do have business in northern CO, so that's a must (my best bud of my entire life has been waiting for me).

Here we are at our farewell dinner in a little, surprisingly good, Mexican joint.
