My plans changed, I decided that I will go tomorrow, I would like to see my friends in Denver. I wont do any business or at least much, and I hate to go away at this time, but life here will go on, we must make it or they have succeded. I will try to make it to Denver tomorrow, but maybe too tired to go all the way. The sun will rise tomorrow on a differnt planet from that of today.
