Beautiful Weekend

It was a beautiful weekend here.  After traveling
through Scotland the previous two weeks, I decided
to stay home and catch up on local stuff this weekend. 
The leaves are in full color and the whole town has a
different feel to it.  I spent a lot of time walking
around town while watching and listening to the locals. 
(Chris, they have opened an upscale restaurant in your
old watering hole!)

Yesterday marked my eleventh month here.  Mother nature
oblidged me by providing a beautiful clear Fall day. 
After work, I walked around town and then drove out
to The Honey Bee (my favorite UK pub) for some Hunters
Chicken and a pint of Timothy Taylor
(hand pumped of course).  The staff there always make
me feel at home and their mashed potatoes and carrots
are like no other.

Work continues to wind down.  The Process Group has
shrunk to half its former size and it will soon shrink
even more.  Things will not pick up for them until after
the new year when new funding is released and the detailed
design begins.

I hope this finds all well where you are.
