Flakes

The first snow hit city level here today--we woke to a thin blanket of white this morning. Always a nice thing to see.

Eric and I got out and went for a hike up Five Mile creek this afternoon in the steady snowfall. Not much accumulating, but with the big temp drops at night I'm betting the pack begins now.

A mere two days til takeoff. In 3 days we'll be sitting in Amsterdam. Getting very excited.

Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving.

E-Mailing It In

It’s the day before Thanksgiving, the day before Eric makes the trip up from Austin for the holiday, and the crap weather has finally hit. The inversion cleared out of Boise about Sunday or so, and since then we’ve had some sunny, chilly, blue-sky days. It’s been wonderful. But, looks like it’ll be short-lived as well. That’s ok. Riding in the rain builds character.

 

Mostly this post is a test of whether or not I can e-mail entries to be posted on this site. Sure would make things easy.

 

Standing by…

Short-Timers

Come Tuesday, we'll be gone, gone. For the month of December Cathy and I will be traveling from the Netherlands through Portugal and into Sevilla, Spain in time for Christmas. Then back to Lisbon, and home, just before New Year's.

I've set up this blog to keep anyone who cares abreast of our exploits. The only question is whether I'll get sufficient access and bandwidth to be able to post here often. I might be able to e-mail posts to this thing, but, to be honest, I'm new to this and I just don't know. I'll figure it out as we go.

So check in on occasion and hopefully there'll be something interesting to read. And maybe some pictures, too.

E-mail us at the addresses above if you want to. We'll be checking once in a while.

Have a nice December.
