Week 44 - Oct 26 - Nov 1, 2026

For weeks, I’ve been saying, incorrectly, that this was my last travel week of the year. In truth, this is my last big work trip of the year (at least as far as I know right now - that could still change). The trip in mid-November is less of a heavy lift on my part.

This week had me in upstate New York again, by way of Burlington, Vermont which meant I got to do the car ferry again. I had fun chatting with dad and Susie while I was on the ferry both times. The drive was beautiful, although I was surprised that the fall color was actually much prettier and more vivid back here at home. Lots of yellow in upper New England while here at home the colors were much more red and orange.

The trip and the client work were excellent. The flight home came in late (when do they not nowadays?!) so I was pretty exhausted all weekend to the point I didn’t feel well Sunday so I stayed home and didn’t even go to church. Looking forward to the next couple of weeks which, at least according to the calendar, are pretty quiet.
