Nope, too warm for January: I just came in from the deck, where I'd been
reading.  And I don't think that they had motorcycles in 700 AD.

Other than those it seems to be a rather charming little town.  I haven't
been able to explore much of it this trip, although we took a walk before
dinner last night and will do so again tonight.  Last night we were too
hungry and needed to have a meeting, and they seem to roll up the carpets
on Sunday, at least Sundays when it's not racing season.  On the other
hand, this kept Joe and me from disappearing forever into a used bookshop
last night -- it was one of those that went winding off into all sorts of
corners and alcoves, continuing just when you thought you'd reached the end.

It's just been pointed out to me that in the restaurant listing, which
includes all sorts of fine dining, they also list McDonald's.  Their one
and *only* McDonald's, "only a mile and a half out of town."  I can deal
with this.

So, a meeting with the bid chair last night, with the sales rep for the
conference center this morning, afternoon reviewing the hotel contract for
a meeting with the hotel CSM tomorrow morning, then a meeting with the
sales rep for the overflow hotel.  On the other hand there is, as
mentioned, a deck off the living room.

Not quite a cross-time bus: he said something last week about a family
reunion.  Those do sometimes seem to involve time-travel, though.
