twenty hours and counting. i am closing in on my trek to bend. i am making 60% cocoa belgian dark chocolate bars, caramel pretzel rods and eating as many double stuffed oreos as i can stuff in my mouth. not a sight for the squeamish. but it needs to be done. the rockies beat the phillies in game 1. the rockies went on a wild winning streak to end the regular season, beating san diego in spectacular fashion monday night. i'm glad to see the rockies pull it together and get some positive attention.
