I my have to drive to Denver soon - from purt-near the Atlantic Ocean. It’s to see relatives but not because I want to visit. I have to pick up the bass viol my wife loaned her nephew.

Denver was awful smoggy today, not so much when I was up there Wednesday afternoon, either way I'm glad to be back from there and the long drive is done. Came within a inch of cracking up a couple times. Somewhere south of Colorado Springs the other night a big old sign truck decided to lose a big old sign right in the fast lane of I-25 right in front of me, and this morning on the way in to Denver some people decided to just stop in the middle lane, apparently for no reason because there weren't no bears in the road or anything like that. So in Colorado, it seems they drive a lot like they do in Oregon.

Maybe its the dope.

For a fiddle, I think I would be tempted to fly and just get it an extra ticket (but they might be bigger than I remember). Southwest might let it fly for free just for the joke fodder such a "passenger" would be for the flight crew. I can hear it now "Is that a bass viol or are you just glad to see me"? Ya put something like than on an airplane and the jokes just write themselves.

A heck of a lug through that crazy big airport though. And catching ebola and stuff.
