A guy in front of me in 1st Class did put his seat back all the way for the whole trip down, but I guess I shouldn&#8217;t complain. I did hop on an earlier flight to get home that put me in Denver at 5:10, 2 hours ahead of schedule. By 7:30 I was home in Vail. Of course today, I&#8217;m right back down in Denver showing wines to a big account for our annual pre-sell.<\/p>\n<p>Ty went to town yesterday to meet his friend Sonny and they then went to the movies before riding home with Mom and then having Sonny spend the night. Ty&#8217;s quite independent these days as he rode his bike to town by himself, no small feat as it&#8217;s 5 miles, and then left it at Mom&#8217;s office in the hospital to hang out in town with Sonny, who took the bus in on his own! The boys sure are growing up.<\/p>\n<p>Houston was good. I landed and my driver picked me up (nice guy from Nigeria who is a republican and started his own business from scratch and now has 5 cars) and took me to the GrandDuca Hotel. This place is like the Plaza in New York or something, very very luxurious and as they say in Texas, big! Anyhow I had my meeting which went very well and then Samson (my driver) zipped me back to the airport. Due to my status, I managed to get on the earlier flight and even ended up in the Exit Row! There were 12 people on standby but I was number 4 and ended up on the plane which as I said, put me in 2 hours earlier.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s cool up here this morning. Lori woke up twice during the night to let Mojo out and when I came down, he had chewed up a sleeping bag while apparently laying on the couch, bad dog! Tonight the Broncos play although we have VIP tickets to the rodeo so not sure what we&#8217;re doing, probably the rodeo as it&#8217;s only preseason, plus Tommy can keep me updated. Time to run, hope all&#8217;s well, GB<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I made it to and from Houston with relatively few issues.
