Reporting from Colorado

All is well from Colorado Springs. Just returned from a night of fine dining at Walters. Have a very nice room overlooking the golf course and the mountains.

Several colleagues and I slipped away from the regular sales meetings - just lots of awards, etc. -- for a nice dinner at Walters. May I recommend the Scallops (appetizer) and Colorado Lamb? We all have presentations at the crack of dawn tomorrow, so it was best to avoid all the revelery.

Once a birder, always a birder: During the cocktail hour on the terrace, someone remarked about the strange birds flying overhead. The Hobbled Runner was quick to ID them as Magpies. The ID was easy since I had seen a bunch in the Badlands of SD last month.
