Latham, NY

We spent a couple of days in Latham, NY - just outside of Albany earlier this week.  On the flight back we were delayed about 5 hours because of the Vice-President flying in the area. 

Ponchatoula, LA

We just spent a week in Ponchatoula, LA.  About an hour north of New Orlean, near Hammond.  Only a quick drive through the town.  Rita was very busy all week so we enjoyed the suite they gave her while she worked.  Tomorrow it's an early trip back home with the dreaded change in Chicago.

Montrose, CO

Hi, we're in Montrose, CO.  We arrived Thursday and we were supposed to leave this coming Thursday but the hotel won't  be open for a couple more weeks so their sending Rita home tomorrow. 

Last night we went for a walk along the Uncompahgre River.  There's a nice parkway to walk or ride bikes.  We also drove around looking at the town and the mountains.  Very beautiful.

It's been very hot here and very dry.
