On the road again

In a few hours, John takes off for a week-long visit to Venezuela and Colombia.  The trip to Venezuela has been in the works since January when he first applied for a visa.  Then this week, Venezuela canceled most of their flights to Colombia.  So we'll see what adventures are in store.
 
Quick around the horn - Mary's school did win the national award, and will get a visit this week by Education Secretary.  Joe is back at work feeling better.  We stopped in to see Margaret last night and saw her new Facebook pages for her dogs.  She bought a football shirt for her puppy (with Michael Vick's name on the jersey!  No hard feelings.)  And Annie is into week 3 of work, having survived one very stressful day early on.  She caught up with an old Pomfret friend this weekend in Boston.  Marilyn went to the U.S. Open last week, and Patrick is planning on a semester in Paris! 
 
Football season's starting, just in time for some of us to forget about the disastrous baseball season. 
 
Temperatures dropped this week, and we even have leaves on the ground!  Unusual for here, but at least one tree did not do so well with this summer's combination of cold, wet and then hot spells.
 
What's new with youse guys?  Love from down here.
