From Utah to Colorado

We left the rocky canyons of southern Utah behind and headed to the ski mountains of Colorado.







 It was the first time I met momma and dad's boating friends, Sue and Paul. They are staying at an RV resort in Breckenridge, CO, for a month of skiing.

I loved playing with their dog, Cooper, AND I loved being in the snow again.

   I stayed in the truck while they went up the mountain in a gondola. 

This was the view as they were going up the mountain.

 The weather forecast called for snow overnight so we left around 4 and headed for Denver. The highway climbed to over 10,000 feet and snow started falling.

The snow didn't stick because the roads were warm...and we arrived in Denver to find absolutely NO snow on the ground and temps in the 50's. Dad said hopefully those were the last snowflakes we will see this month, but I love snow and hope I can play in some at home when we get back in a couple days.

  1. I've been busy and just had time to "catch up" on your adventures. I envy you both. The pictures are FABULOUS!! Bill & I visited Zion and Bryce Canyons and Bryce was my absolute favorite! I think I liked it even more than the Grand Canyon. I have never been to Capital Reef, and have never seen the Byway 12 Rocks or Vail so those sights were new to me and very enjoyable also. It was nice that you got to spend time with some of your "boating Buddies" too. And by the way, the pictures of snow were nice BUT I'm happy to never see it again "in person". Mattie can enjoy it for her AND for me!! :0) Safe travels and keep in touch.
