Dallas, July 11

Hello, friends.  It has been a few days since I last wrote, from Prague.  After an approximately 23-hour travel odyssey on July 8, we finally arrived back in Dallas, but not for long.  Alexandra is back in Seattle now, and I am about to take off for Denver tomorrow, where I will be meeting Ann Stevens for a road trip to Wyoming, Montana, and up into the Banff / Lake Louise area.  I may not be able to write as regularly as usual, since Wifi is not a definite presence in the remote areas we will be visiting.  I may try to consolidate a few days into a blog entry, but you will be hearing from me, if you are interested in following along.  This trip is from July 12-28--I am just as excited about it as I was about the Czech / German trip!  May the odysseys continue!  As ever, Sylvia
