Five o'Clock and all's well

Z and J are on their way towards Springfield, IL. We just enjoyed a visit with them at the local Culver's.

We could have chatted and visited oh so much longer! So much fun!

Drive careful, stay safe in the freaky weather...but enjoy yourselves and your Bambino treasure...jealous that Brad has already met you! But then he's a mover and a shaker, too...so it doesn't really surprise me.

Have a blast!

Hey all - we're in Litchfield! Its raining a fair amount, and we didn't want to go hunting for a place to park with J being pretty jet lagged, so, on the Maccamper's recc, we just popped into a hotel here.

Jordan, too bad we didn't see that in time, we could have stopped to say hi!

TB, how was the trip! I'm SURE we'll meet up soon.

We had a great time with the Macs! We way could have chatted for a much, much longer time--they're the kind of people who get more and more interesting the longer you talk to them! Looking forward to meeting up with you again, and now dying to see what you're doing with your ASs.

Off to find some food--I wish we were in the Bambino, but well, jet lag.

Brad, you think you'll be too tired Saturday night? A young friend of mine has just moved up to KC from Texas to join a band up there, and we're thinking of trying to push through tomorrow to make their Saturday night gig. (irish trad of some sort, probably young hot shot kind of thing!)

We're not in a hurry, as we hear Denver is really socked in with snow at the moment...

Z & J, The local WX forecast reported that Loveland got 15 inches with more coming down overnight. The system that caused that is heading for the Great Plains. Snow flurries overnight here due to a cold front that came through NM this PM. From there until Wednesday it is supposed to be good but cool. A series of low pressure systems are to come through later on in the week. The WX guessers are not sure if they will go through Colorado or dive into NM at this point.

Travel safe!

I'll be fine. The invitation is open if you want. Where is the pub? I'll be home @ 5 PM so give me a call or text but your always welcome. I have friends in Litchfield, they own a jewelry store and a flower shop. At the Hampton?

Travel safe

It's at O'Malley's in Weston, so it'd be a bit of a trek! Don't feel badly if you don't want to get into the rig again...we will definitely be coming your way on Sunday, I'm thinking.

I keep hearing worse and worse things about the weather...

P.S, I have the suspenders for you!

Heading south, eh Z? I'm sort of jealous that you've left us far behind but I don't envy you the manky weather. Still, you have lots of staging posts on your trip and, as you say, time is not of the essence.

Keep safe and stay in touch, eh? (he says, going all Canadian)

Crawling west now and dawdling in hopes of hitting the better weather, everybody in Denver says to put off getting into town as long as possible. Hope to see a friend's performance tonight, see Brad tomorrow, then see what the weather's doing!

I avoid traveling in sucky weather unless it's a family emergency. From here in Ca. it is reported that the Co. weather does indeed suck. Have some friend video record your friends performance...if indeed it itself isn't postponed. As for Brad there is always another 'tomorrow'. Life is too short for any stress. Stay safe.

Only raining so far--kind of nice except for when a car cuts me off a bit and sprays water at my window! The instant it gets any colder/snows/ices, we'll find a place to stop, I promise!
