A nice new view from the Baxyard...The Baxes are taking a much needed break in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. We are very fortunate to have a great place to stay in the Dillon/Silverthorne area compliments of Dave's dad. It is such a treat. And we especially love this time of year. Though nothing is open in terms of skiing, etc., we enjoy the peacefulness and quiet and a few days of family time - no practices, games, work, school, etc. What could be better.
After a long drive and about 500 hundred, "Are we in Colorado yet?", we arrived to a couple feet of snow and bright, crystal clear Colorado blue skies. So far we are enjoying every minute.
We are learning about elevation changes, altitude sickness, the Continental Divide the timberline, how big a rock it takes to break the ice of a frozen pond at 11,000 feet and that Clara and Dave will be the skiers in our family and Davis, Eden and I prefer snowboarding. Today...off to ice skating and some other outdoor activities - temps in the upper 40s and sunny.
