New beginnings .......

This afternoon Tom will be flying out to Boulder, to begin his studies at the University of Colorado.

Is Boulder the right place for a seafood fiend?

Tom and his Lonely Planet guide

We’ve been busy over the past few days making that sure everything he could possibly need is packed. He’s got his ski gear, cappo and i-pod and he might even have the odd pen and text book!

 The red buildings are CU and the football stadium is bigger than Villa Park!

Just look at how close the Rockies are ...

You will notice that on the side bar of the blog I now have three weather and time reports

Rhiannon and Tom

Won't life be dull without the 'kids' fooling around!

Last night Rhiannon and Ben came for a ‘last supper’, along with their dogs Maisie and Lucy. They gave him the Lonely Planet Guide to Colorado which is full of things to do (and probably some he shouldn’t!).

Tom and the dogs 'taking advantage' on his last night at home. They ALL know that Maisie and Lucy are NOT allowed on the settee ...

If all goes to plan ,Tim, who is currently in the US on a business trip, will meet him in Denver and they will spend a few days together in Boulder.

An empty nest ......
