Since last year’s anniversary was pretty much a bust (Thea got the flu), we wanted to make up for it a bit this year. We both enjoy hot springs quite a bit, so we decided to stay at the Wiesbaden Hot Springs spa in Ouray. We rented their “Hilltop Cottage,” which is really just a [...]
So we finally got to meet our nephew, Revin. Here are a few photos: That’s me holding him for the first time. My mom’s an old hand at baby-holding. Tiny feet. Crashed. You can find more photos here: http://www.grownbypeople.com/zenphoto/index.php?album=Revin-November-2008
Today we head east for a long visit with family & friends for Thanksgiving and beyond. We’ll spend the most time with my mom in Red Feather Lakes, but also see people in Fort Collins and Boulder. We’ve been back in Colorado for a couple years now, but have never taken the time to catch [...]

We’re winding up our visit to San Luis Obispo this evening and rolling out of town tomorrow. It’s been a great visit with old friends. Walking around SLO today was fun – perfect weather, the students just arrived, and everything is gorgeous. It was a beautiful place to live. We came half-expecting feelings of regret [...]
Took me long enough, but here I am finally writing about our excellent visit with friends up in the mountains last weekend. First, we were only gone about 30 hours. But this was one of those trips that actually felt like a lot more – in a GOOD way. Our friends, H & A, have [...]
