Traveling light

Anna and I had a wonderful, but very short trip back to NH last weekend. We flew out of SLC Thursday evening on what seemed to be the longest flight ever. Anna, bless her heart, gave me the aisle seat. As we came in for a landing, we broke through the fog and it seemed like we were going really fast. Sure enough we waved off and circle for a second attempt. You could cut the tension on the plane with a knife until we were at the gate. This added time to our already behind schedule arrival. We finally made it to the rental car place and they did not have the type of vehicle we were supposed to get, thus we ended up with a bright--I mean bright--red Dodge Magnum.

Friday we picked up Nellie and Peter and drove up to NH to some of the best fall foliage I have seen in years. We had a wonderful time eating Chinese and bowling with Jane, Jerry, Thomas and Karissa. The latter of whom have one of the most beautiful baby girls ever!

Saturday was a gorgeous fall NE day and Jane and Jerry had a party to show off their new
home and for people that were not able to attend the wedding. It was great to see so many people that I had not seen in quite a while. Sunday morning came very early. Unfortunately, our flight was delayed and we missed the AB Memorial ride. I made a quick turnaround and then drove to Telluride for the ISSW workshop where I am now. I am looking forward to being home this weekend! Thanks to Steve and Susan for letting us stay at the Red Dog!
