Even Shorter Update

Just returned from the La Veta Inn for "happy hour". They're doing winter hours with a winter menu; translation: only locals and it's slow. But Friday night is still holding steady with the "gang". No shortage of laughter and good stories.

Andy and I have been working on the computer doing autocad stuff in order to pay for our La Veta hobby, so progress on the house is a little slow at this time. But we're putting in a temporary shower and have hot water and a stove so we can come back in Dec. or Jan. and be able to live in the house.

What can I say? La Veta has captured our souls for the time being. A friend here says, "You don't find La Veta; La Veta finds you." I have to agree. There are too many "ooooo-eeeee-oooo" things that happen here to be just coincidence (sp).

Anyhoo....that's all I got for now.

Really Short Update

No pics at this time since I shorted out my laptop by spilling (what else) beer on the keyboard. So I'm on Andy's laptop again and will try pictures at a later time.
Our ETA for Carp is Monday, Nov 24. We tried to work it so the kids could come here for Thanksgiving, but best laid plans...
Halloween in La Veta was a blast! Wish I could post photos! The La Veta Inn had a party and I was an interactive "cloudy with a chance of showers/snow" with a spray bottle and confetti. Use your imagination. Andy went as "Andy", but at least he went. He had plans to leave early, but stayed the entire time. My little social butterfly!!
Low tonight is 9 degrees.
That's all I got for now. Lvoe, k
