Colorado-in' it up, yo

I'm back in the big CO, and doing well! Moving was an absolute trial- I ended up having to postpone my flight, and I made Nick late to work (Nick, you have the patience of a saint. Seriously.)

Now that I'm back, I'm just trying to see everyone at least once during the brief time I'm here. The weather has been very... Scottish here as of late. I love it. It's a very welcome break from Arizona! See:


So far I've only gotten to see my mom, dad, and brother, but I'll be seeing Becca and the family in about an hour, Sabrinah Teusday, Clay Wednesday, Dad again Friday, Steppie Saturday, and Amy... sometime. Whew!

Since the weather's so lovely, I went out for a walk night before last around the property, accompanied by my fierce hunting-cat, Arthur.


We made a tour of the old forts, starting with the lookout post, then Fort Woods, followed by "Carpet Town" as I just decided to call it, the cabin (an 8' by 10', real log cabin that my dad and I built), "The Bunker," and finally headed up past the deer meadow to where the vein of quartz rock comes to the surface. It occurs to me now that I missed the one up by the road amongst the baby pines, and the spot where I always built my snow caverns. Anyway, it was amazing how much the scale of the place has changed relative to me over the course of the last ten years.

In other news, I ran into Jeff Schmishny today (sp?). He's a cadet with the Denver Police and getting free school at Metro, though he plans on using the Police as a step on his way to being a fire-fighter. Ah, brave Jeff! Always off saving people!

Alright, I'll stop boring you. Off to see "Revenge of the Sith!"
