It's Not Too Late...

...to drink a Christmas beer -- it's only the eleventh night, and one of our neighbors hasn't taken his house lights down yet. Neither have I, but the weather was awful today and the wind has started doing the job for me.

The Fort Collins trip planning is almost complete. I've made the train reservations for the outbound trip, plane reservations for the return, and the hotel is booked for six nights. The only thing left to arrange is the car rental.

We'll be in Fort Collins for the 23rd annual Colorado Brewers' Festival. What a coincidence!

I'm really excited about this trip. A sleeper train journey is one of my bucket list items.
