Happy New Year, everyone.

2009 is shaping up to be one hell of a ride. Pretty excited for a number of things, including, “New Projects” and “Mr. Obama taking the reigns” and even some “Home improvements” and a possible “New rig.”

Here’s to health, happiness and long Dachshunds in 2009, all you hung-over New Year’s revelers!

Out of Denver, flipped a coin and went I-70 up through that Eisenhower Tunnel, through Summit County and down into Grand Junction. Not too much to mention. A quiet day with good, cold, dry roads. Phew.
