are you bored yet

Denver at 7pm,we are here until 8pm. Not wanting to take any chances, I am staying near the train.

Clouds and rainfall in Colorado. Very green snd lush along the rivers both the Colorado and the Frazier.
Unfortunate that yhey are having beetles kill the pine trees, major fire hazard, seriuosly. They are also battling the Tamarask trees along the river. (they have hsd park interpretors on the train,) it seems that the importation of the tamarask beetle has been a boon in controlling the plants, lets hope that is really all they will eat!

I have had dinner in the diner both evenings, and had nice visits with other travelers. I even had occasion to invite a young man to test his powers of imagination! ;]
There are folks headed to Efffingham Illinois. All this time, and I will be in the same state as thst Effing town that Bob and Tom talk about!

Saw two ladies doing needlepoint in the observation car, very brave I told them, I feel the tablet weave is tough enough on the train.

Srill tring to find wi-fi, may not happen until I get to Chicago where I can walk (I hope) to an access point. Feh.
