Hello John and thanks for the welcome! I should be able to make it to the office by 8, it would be nice to meer you. I got coach tickets but plan on riding the open gondola pending that it won't rain. The parlor car was tempting but is too rich for a college student like myself. Next time I plan on riding the parlor car or to one of the big photo/excursion events.
We have witnessed valley
and plain and crest,
Canon and pass we've scanned;
We have seen the best
of the glorious West,
by the trail of the Rio Grande
