Week 7 (27 Oct. 2012) »

Well, it was the last two-day weekend for this year, folks. As I said on the introductory page, we were entertained this week by the Cripple Creek Cloggers (none of whom, by the way, are actually from their namesake, Cripple Creek, CO) and had a nice visit on Sunday by Hans and Erika. Please enjoy.
