Trip photos -- how things change

We go home today -- BN state is supposed to get some snow, but they are pretty good about keeping the airport open etc... by dinnertime I should be snuggled with the cats watching as much stuff on the TIVO as I can cram in before going to school tomorrow to prep for next semester.

This trip was my first real experience with the desert. It is an amazing place and someplace I've come to love and appreciate... even if I'm not sure I could live in. I also returned to Denver and some of my favorite mountains.... mountains I love, miss when I'm in the rather flat Midwest -- and that I'd even give up lakes to live in...


The Continental Divide a couple of summers ago....








The same sign now....














Last weekend in the Sonoran desert, communing with the Saguro cacti...
















This weekend in the Rocky Mountians...

















and... we leave on Thursday for Red State for another tournament.... sigh.

Yes, this is for the debater that called me "an extra missing neurone":


That you are in pain does not mean you are entitled to mess in my environs.

Your pain does spill into my environs, even if domestically induced (forbidden).

Messing in my environs is forbidden by my environs. Really. Post factum not.

Stay away from my environs.


Having stated that, I would like to propose that next year's debate be held in Finland. My summers get too hot and I don't really enjoy staying home.
