The Stimulus Package is signed in Denver

Not a very busy week.

Ariel was here on Monday. We had a good time; watched
Planet Earth for an hour, played some games, had lunch
and went swimming.

On Tuesday both Jared and Obama were in town. I didn't
see either one of them, but the Stimulus package did
get signed and Jared was busy. R. and I went to one
of his Town Hall meetings.

Today Robert and I went for a ride and visited my
previous home in Coal Creek Canyon. I was shocked
to see the house we had painted a sage green was now
stuccoed an orange color with a green steel roof; talk
about pumpkin. They also had made some major
architetcuralchanges and build a guest house exactly
where we had thought of doing that. The new houses
in the area all McMansions. I'm glad I don't live there any
more. When we lived there the people there were, as
we, pretty middle class and not aspiring to pretension.
