We were up this morning at 3 to get our oldest daughter off to Florida for a mini-vacation.
Then at 5:30 we met our second oldest daughter and her husband at Denny’s to take them to breakfast for her 39th birthday! They were heading up to Grand Mesa to snow shoe for the day.
We got home by 7:30 and crashed for an hour…naps sure are nice things.

It’s cold here…12*, but still dogs need to walk, and I need to walk, and the little kids like to get out of the house.
While coming back from the upper end masses of Sand Hill Cranes flew overhead….
My still shot was not very good, but at least you can hear their sound.

The next night found us in Denver. Terry had a meeting he had to go to and I thought I would enjoy having a break.
First Independence Pass then a canyon of very tall buildings… skyscrapers they are called (as all of you know).
We had a room fairly close to the 16th Street Mall so we were able to walk over there.
Now DO NOT laugh at me, but I get lost in places like that….all the buildings look the same, there are vehicles EVERYWHERE, and tons of people from all walks of life.
I had it in my head that I would walk around and take some pretty cool city shots…I didn’t make it. Two blocks to the mall, one block one way and then one block the other way is about all I could do or I would have been hopelessly turned around and not able to get back to the hotel.
I admire all of you who live and work and can function in large and giant cities.
We had snow on the passes, but not too bad.
I’m just glad we are home. (I don’t get lost in land around here or on the forest areas…just in concrete jungles, I guess.—I know, rather sad.)
