We’re visiting the kids in Denver. We scheduled the trip so that we’d be here to help out with the 1-and-three-quarters year-old, because mom is pregnant with grandchild #3 and feeling sick all the time, and their nanny’s on vacation, and dad has to work. But it’s been really easy. We’ve been spending a ton … [Read more…]
And I haven’t even told you about Denver, or much beyond our first day there. When I backed up my pictures there were 51 – it’s been that long since I last did a backup. To start, the following pics are our 1st day in Denver and our first post-birthday day back in Madison. Our … [Read more…]
Things started off smoothly for our quick trip to Denver to see Rowan, although it was a little nerve wracking waiting for the cab to show up at 6:00 AM to get us to the bus to the Milwaukee airport. But everything was on time, cab to bus, bus to airport, plane to Denver, light … [Read more…]
Jiggity Jig. And now it’s been a week. Our last night in Denver we drove to Boulder to meet up with my cousin (my mother’s younger brother’s son, the ER doc, who’s moved to Denver for kind of a last 5 years of his career job, running a lab at University of Colorado Fort Collins) … [Read more…]
Or most of the rest, I guess – we’re still here until tomorrow. I’ve been a little better about taking pictures, but not writing so I think this will be a bit long! I’ll try to go chronologically so you can skip around. On Sunday after Mark walked and I iced my hand, we got … [Read more…]
We’re having a bit of a rocky start to the Denver vacation to meet the newest grandchild. First our flight got delayed a bunch. I got a text at about 6:30 AM that the our flight that was supposed to take off at 11:00 was not leaving at 1:48. Atypically we were flying out of … [Read more…]
So here we are on September 22 September 23, and I have not written anything since the 9th, when I was in Denver for Ethan & Megan’s wedding. Which was a lot of fun – here’s my favorite picture. The DJ did a trick to get everyone onto the floor, and I took a few … [Read more…]
We’re in Denver for Mark’s son Ethan’s big fancy wedding, and I am at our Airbnb finally knocking off work, and finally writing a post here, my first one in the month of September, and it’s already the 9th. As the evil stepmother (well maybe not soooo evil) I didn’t have to go to the … [Read more…]
The weather in Denver quickly changed. On Saturday it was almost 70 when we were hiking in Boulder, and by the time we got up Sunday there was snow – an inch or two on the ground, and it was cold, in the 20s. Saturday after our hike we ate at Centro. I still have … [Read more…]
I attended the Midwinter library conference, and it was a bit of an odyssey. I was supposed to leave on Friday, early, but there was a snowstorm, and everything going out of Chicago got cancelled. The best anyone could do for me was a 9:00 AM flight out of O’Hare on Saturday morning, and that … [Read more…]
