It's been just over a year since "T" and I took
our last run up to Basalt. A lot has changed since your last visit,
but the most important things haven't, friends!!
We had a little more time this trip as we didn't ski
but neither one of us missed running down the mountain too much.
Even though it snowed a couple of mornings that we were there it was a
bit on the warm side for the conditions that we've become spoiled with
in Colorado and Montana. It's kinda nice to be fickle about what
kind of snow you'll actually ski in.

One of the things that has changed is Conner,
he growing up into quite the gentleman. Even if Grandma does her
best to spoil him just a little.
We picked up the Con Man from Michael and Susan Friday
morning with the intention of heading up to Redstone and a park to play
and enjoy the day. Unfortunately we wound up at the Burger King in
Glenwood as the weather forced us to find an inside park.

Terry, Lisa, John, Teri, Joe and Conner spent
a relaxing Saturday sightseeing up in Aspen. Joe had never been in
Aspen before so it sounded as good as any other excuse to get Conner up
to a park where he and John could burn off some energy.
|
The nite before we all spent at the ElJeBowl while
Terry and LIsa bowled league. We kept Conner up just a little bit
past his bedtime to ensure him a good nite sleep. So much for that
theory, he was up at 5:56 am the next morning. Ask me how I know
this!!

Saturday nite Joe had to pay up on his bet that
he lost. The wager was nothing more than an excuse to go out to dinner
at Sopris in Glenwood Springs. The actual bet will be long forgotten
but the romantic dinner will remain vivid in our memories forever.
|
After spending two and a half days exploring,
seeing old friends and just plain relaxing, we had to hit the road on Sunday
morning for the ride home.
Terry and Lisa swear that they are coming down to
Arizona this year. Hopefully they will find the time to come down
and have fun in the desert, just not in the summer time. Of course
if they did, maybe they would appreciate the snow they get just a little
bit!!
