Ho hum

Ho hum, another sinfully sunny day in SW Colorado. The last couple of days have gotten up into the 60s and 70s ... sure makes one think of spring (which in Colorado means we have at least three mini-blizzards ahead of us).

It's been a lazy couple of days ... enjoying the sun, doing a little with "Condo," the Casita travel trailer. Sandy came up with the name, which allows us to say (down the road) that we've had a condo in Colorado, Utah, Arizona, etc. We're really looking forward to taking our first trip in it, which will probably be when we go to Monument Valley on March 25 to celebrate our first anniversary; we plan to stay in The View Hotel on the rim of Monument Valley on the 25th and then spend the next night in Condo in Valley of the Gods.

Before then, we'll be attending our first Durango Photography Club meeting tonight, working in the KSJD booth at Ag Expo on Saturday and hosting my brother-in-law Bill on Sunday and Monday. All good fun.

I'm pleased to see the President going to Orange County, CA, (not exactly one of his strongholds of support) to hold a town hall speech, open on a first-come, first-served basis, with public televising of his presentation and the question-and-answer session. That, to me, is the way it should be, not the closed-door, invitation-only secretiveness of the last few years. Still, Geithner probably has to go ... too close to the problem, IMHO (not that anyone asked. ;-}). tv
