Headed to Homecoming



Last weekend, the Colorado College class of '98 regrouped in tiny Colorado Springs to relive old times. I decided to bring the evster with me so that he too could experience such Springs treats like Wooglins, Garden of the Gods, Blue Star, terre verde, and much, much more. We flew out of nyc on Thursday evening, and because of the departure time of our flight, decided that taking a chopper out to the airport would ensure not getting stuck in rush hour traffic. It was my first time on a helicopter... and I was pretty terrified. There is something not quite right about them-- they look so heavy in the front– seemingly they could tip over at any moment. But the ride was really pleasant (and short!) and landed us straight at our gate. Gotta love door to door service.
