Colorado fun

Thanks to my computer literate daughter I have some pictures to share from our Colorado trip. We had a great time and the weather was good for the most part. We did find out that if you wanted to do anything you needed to do it in the morning so that by the time you are finished the rain and/or sleet would not mess up the whole adventure. The jeep we rented was great and we put it to the test driving the Alpine Loop which took us up to Cinnamon pass and Engineer pass (the last one in the sleet, which was pretty scary) and also to the Wheeler Geologic area where a 14 mile drive took 2 1/2 hours!!! In fact we timed part of it when we were leaving and it took 10 minutes to drive one mile!!!! That was one rough road. Our pasture roads are better. I don't think they want too many people to go there. The aspens were starting to change while we were there and it was just beautiful to watch from day to day how the colors changed. The place we camped (Cottonwood Cove) was really nice, very peaceful and the people were all so nice, but the internet was down the whole week we were there so that is why you are getting it all at once. It was very hard to tear ourselves away and come back home, but when you play you have to pay so it is back to work we good with lots of good memories and lots of pictures to help the memory when it goes entirely (happening quicker than I thought). So enjoy the pictures and I will blog again when something exciting happens (that won't be too soon I am sure).

Colorado Trip 2009

Colorado

Well, we are leaving tomorrow for Colorado. I have been checking the weather and the highs are in the upper 50's and lower 60's with nighttime being in the 30's. Burrrrrrr. I need to pack my long johns. Will try to find a place that I can blog from, but not sure if I can find one or not. So keep checking and see if I am here or not. Later.
