A visit to Glenwood Springs






We took a quick weekend trip to Glenwood Springs in mid-August to see Fran and her daughter, Charlotte. The Ralffs are friends from NJ that dad used to snowplow for way back when. They moved out to Glenwood and when I moved to CO, we reconnected. I used to ski with Fran's husband Rudy every once in a while at Snowmass.

The weekend we visited, Fran's grandkids were also visiting. We went out to lunch, went up the gondola to Adventure Park, walked the bike path and swam in the hotel pool (no we didn't make it to the hot springs on this trip!). Gavin wasn't too thrilled with his first ride on a gondola but the second time up he got used to it - no worries - he still has another year or so until we strap the skis to his feet and bundle him up like a snow bunny!

Anyway, we had a nice visit and the weather was great. Can't say the same for the traffic on the way home - good old I-70 traffic jams at Georgetown!
