Living just SE of I-25 & E-470, I am well aware of the pain the people from your area experienced. The good coming out of this flood is the people helping one another. I enjoy your writing style and hope it is your way to find a bright side to everything.

Get used to Denver weather. They say it will snow tonight (Thurs) but be 81 degrees again by Tuesday.

Perhaps this flood experience with "hinder" your Mom's immediate return visit.

It shouldn't be unusual to find retired air traffic controllers nearby. Denver ATC Center is on 17th St in Longmont CO.

How did I miss it so far? An eightblack report.

At last the drought is over. We can sink in the chair and enjoy the ride.

Perhaps not the best choice of words given the subject? LOL



Well done, Eightblack. I've been a longtime reader (that doesn't sound weird) so I, like many around here, always look forward to the next Eightblack saga. Thanks for the great read.

How'd I miss this one? A dispatch from my home state by FT's finest writer no less! Well I've copied it down now and will enjoy it at leisure from a comfy seat aboard United's PS later today. Thanks in advance for a great read and the inevitable laughs, 8B!

When I saw this TR this morning, I saved it for when I got back from my morning swim, (and shopping nightmare).
I got home, opened a bottle of wine, and started reading.
Sir, how on earth did I miss this one? Some hearty laughs, guffaws, and a few tears.
These gems from eightblack are absolute treasures. Many happy miles, and we need some more TR's from you.
