Leaving on a jet plane... Mrs Blog and I are back to New Hampshire today. We enjoyed our mini-vacation here in San Diego. Lots to do in sunny Southern California. Gotta ask Todd Bankhead some time if being a native makes the freeway traffic easier to deal with. We get into Manchester early in the AM Saturday and then I've got to turn around and get to Gillette.  Whew! I'll be needing a vacation from the vacation.
