Probation

My family has violated the small print of our internet service provider contract, something about too many uploads and downloads and never being able to run for public office again.

I can't publish pictures from last weekend. It was a combination of dear friends in Denver (or 'Menver' as some would say), family fun in a corn maze, and a visit to Amanda.

Abby and I were supposed to drive up to Helena, Montana, this weekend to meet Charlie. We had a wonderful plan to stay with a former friend - only by virtue of having not been in touch for eight years - and drive Charles Kuralt's most beautiful highway in the US, Beartooth, and hike and drink coffee. Then yesterday a huge blizzard covered three states' worth of routes. Charles, ever resourceful, called us quoting 1/3 plane ticket prices from Spokane to Denver. This morning we picked him up at DIA for a long weekend including family Oktoberfest tomorrow night.

Pictures forthcoming as soon we get out of the corner.

i would LOVE to be snowed in with the Kirkbride/Westerman fam. Are you guys playing a round of settlers?

Menver it is. I would very much like to snowed in with you all as well, but NO Settlers. I couldn't care less about ore, or sheep, or whatever it is I'm supposed to be trading.
