Wyoming Trip Update

Just a short note, because the Internet connection is painfully slow.

The vacation is going amazingly well. The trip up here went unbelievably smooth. Both flights were on time. Our luggage arrived when we did. On both flights there was a single mom traveling with an infant seated near us, and both kids slept the entire flight. It's enough to make me worry about the trip home.

The weather has been fabulous - at least for us. The locals are complaining about the heat. Highs in the low 90s, but with low humidity and a pleasant breeze. That's a nice autumn day in Texas.

My only complaint is my horse. He's a big buckskin - well mannered, which is nice, but he has a very rough gait. I feel like someone worked me over with a baseball bat. Knees, hips, back, kidneys, and of course glutes are all sore. But a little ibuprofen and a few cold beers help.

In any event, that's a small price to pay for what has been, so far, a wonderful time. I hope things are going equally well in your lives.

Happy trails!
