Flip Phone Fanatics and other Fall Follies


Our new faculty member, Tracy, and her husband hosted a cookout for all of us.  It was there that Tom discovered another person who also loves a flip phone. Of course, Tracy has mastered all the tricks of T9 messaging (she is younger than him after all). Tom, on the other hand, has mastered how to say a lot with a little. His typical replies to my often protracted text messages are:  Yo, Gr8, F9, and K.


Checking on the soybeans to see if they are ready to combine.
The farmer getting ready to start his day.
Family weekend at the University of Colorado/Boulder. As usual, Dan frowned at my desire to take his picture.
CU - Oregon game! So fun to be with them!
Grocery store with some attitude
On my walk back from the grocery store I encountered this and 3 other deer munching grass in someone's front yard.
Brackett Hall is where Dan resides.  The view from his window is of the football stadium just across the street.
Looking at Mt. Sanita in the distance, it appears Dan is thinking "we're hiking up that?"  
Nearing the summit.
On the summit. It was so clear we could see Denver!
Then it was off to a conference in Houston. Amy and I met up with Whitney, a soon-to-be graduate, finishing her internship at the Texas Medical Center.
