Colorado Report #3


Yesterday we spent all day here at the house waiting for the snow storm that never arrived. The weather people said we would have 3-8 inches, we got about 1/8 of an inch. But it was cold and icy all day. I think the high here at the house yesterday was about 8 degrees. Last night we got down to zero. So we just stayed inside and spent the day celebrating Peter's 7 month birthday. It's hard to believe it has already been 7 months.
Today we planned to just go into town to get some formula, then visit a few more shops in Westcliffe. But the local grocery store was out of baby formula. So we headed into Florence about an hour or so away to get it. After that we went to the Royal Gorge Bridge. You can click here to see a great picture of it and read more about it. Our little camera just could not handle this thing. After that we found some snow near by and stopped to play in it. Peter had a blast. These are some of my (Pete) favorite pictures from today.







Tomorrow is our last full day here in Colorado. We plan to leave in the morning to head into Colorado Springs for the day. We don't have any set plans, so who knows what we will get ourselves into. We will stay there tomorrow night and then head back Sunday morning. It has been a great trip, but we are all ready to get back to South Texas. Can't wait to see you all.
