A quiet week

Of course, the big news this week was the killing of
Osama bin Laden. I have to wish he'd been captured
alive and given the chance to say he was sorry. Even
if that is very unlikely. I even more fervently hope
we, very soon, will withdraw all of our troops from
Afghanistan. The people there want us gone, too.
In addition, let us stop bombing raids in Pakistan.

On the personal front it has been a quiet week for us.

Robert did go to Longmont on Tuesday and drive antique
cars. This time it was antique trucks. He had a good
time. Later this month all 380 vehicles are to be moved
from Longmont to Lafayette. What a mass driving week
that will be. I have offered to ferry people from
Lafayette back to Longmont to pick up another car.
We'll see if that happens.

We are still waiting on the county, working with our Fire
Chief, to finish the creek clean up. I was told by the
Fire Chief when I inquired if there was a time line for
the final pick-up, that "patience is a virtue." Ah,
well...so much for a definitive answer. We'll wait.

Yesterday Robert and I met Susan Wayland in Louisville
where we had lunch at the Santa Fe Grill. It was a
fun time. Lots of conversation and laughing. We
spent more than 2 hours at the restaurant; it's good
they weren't very crowded.
