More than a week

[Yesterday: 3.4 miles ;  3+ miles on four previous days]

More than a week has gone by since my last post here, closer to two weeks actually.

Let’s see.  I ran 3+ miles on Thursday the 22nd.  We drove to Colorado on the 23rd and 24th and set ourselves up in the Super 8 in Windsor, CO in the smallest hotel room I’ve ever had.  Sunday I had a day of fasting and prep for a colonoscopy on Monday the 26th.  That went well.  Then the rest of the week I was visiting with my work peeps during the day and enjoying the company of our daughter in the evenings.  I ran twice on the treadmill at the Super 8 for 3.25 miles each time.  On Saturday the 31st we started out for home, making it as far as Tulsa where I ran again for 3 miles on the treadmill at the Double Tree hotel  (nice!).  We arrived back home in the afternoon on Sunday, February 1st.

Yesterday it was off to the animal hotel to fetch the pets back, then back on the keyboard for me.  In the evening I ran on Watson Road.

The new suitcase I received for Christmas from the Penengers worked great during our trip.  The car ran well (we put more then 3000 miles on it).

I wish I could have kept up with this blog during our trip.  I am always torn between doing so and the dangers of advertising that our house is deserted.  But it all worked out fine and we had a good trip.

When we arrived home there was a stack of mail to go through.  We got a handful of returns from the 500+ letters we sent out for the radio station project.  All “return to sender”, no big fat checks.
