Report from Denver

I'm finding a lot in the archives -- but it's going very slowly as I'm stopping to take a picture of almost every piece of paper I look at. I've been getting through less than a box a day. I'm starting to feel like I'll never finish my thesis on time if every archive takes this long -- never mind the time it takes to process.

It's dry up here or something because the inside of my nose is drying out all the time, and it is rather unpleasant.

However we have been eating very good dinners. Last night we had dinner at place called Root Down which was excellent. We shared 4 small plates -- roaster cauliflower salad with lots different colors of cauliflower, mini duck tacos with blue corn tortillas, corn meal cakes, and scallops. Everything was good.

I wish I had more energy to write about this trip -- but being in the archives is fairly intense.
