We are comfortably settled next to Brian and Leigh’s house. They’ve been making comments about how the Airstream looks like it belongs here … and since they are currently Airstream-less, this sounds very dangerous. The trailer does fit nicely next to the driveway. I know they are thinking about getting back on the road in the next two years. Will we cause them to accelerate their plans? I’d like to think so.<\/p>\n

Emma has been struck down by a cold, probably the result of flying five hours across the Pacific just a couple of seats away from a couple that were sneezing. This is one of the things we really hate about flying. It seems like one of us always catches a cold after a flight. That’s one of the reasons I try especially hard to avoid flying in the winter. Emma has spent the day resting, reading, drinking fluids and eating Clementines, with occasional breaks to toss a ball for Curtis the dog. \u00a0 She was slated to do home schooling all day but we gave her the day off.<\/p>\n

However, it was no day off for me. \u00a0 I set up in Brian and Leigh’s home office, and the three of us just put our heads down and worked all day. \u00a0 At the end of the day, they took a poker break and taught me a few things about the game.<\/p>\n

Anyone who follows their blog<\/a> knows that Leigh and Brian are consummate poker players. They are the kind of players I like, not flashy, but very consistent. \u00a0 They play an intellectual game, studying the nuances, and they work at it. \u00a0 As a result, they are very good. \u00a0 I felt privileged to play with them for an hour.<\/p>\n

We’ve got much more work to do this week, so we’ll stay parked in the driveway at least one more night. \u00a0 There’s no rush to go especially now that Emma is a bit down, and I can certainly make us of the work time. \u00a0 If there’s extra time this week, and Emma is feeling better, we’ll try the Children’s Museum and maybe visit the 4-D “Polar Express” ride at the Excalibur.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
