Mountain Vacation


It has been lovely here in Idaho Springs, CO. The weather just about perfect.. in the mid 70's. Walking out our front door and seeing the beautiful mountains has been wonderful!

Sister Kathy drove out from Denver to treat us to lunch. We drove up into the mountains to the small town of Empire, where Kathy treated us to a nice lunch in a little cafe. Dessert... a huge piece of peanut butter pie, served with three forks! We strolled main street and stopped to check out an antique shop. In the evening we drove into Denver to see Kathy's play. It was a comedy about a woman who got possession of a dead man's cell phone. Along the way it made several points about how cell phones have affected our lives. Kathy played the part of the dead man's mother, Mrs. Gottlieb. We really enjoyed the play!

Today we are leaving Idaho Springs for Canon City, CO. Our plans are to ride the excursion train which runs through the bottom of the Royal Gorge. We hope to do that tomorrow (Sunday) and then we will have to head home on Monday.

From Colorado,
Joe & Vicki
