Day 22 of Western Adventures ( Part A)

Another crisp morning  with wake up in Glenwood Springs, Colorado greeted us today. Our plans were to drive over to Pikes Peak for a quick look at the fourteener near Colorado Springs.  We heard that Andy Williams had passed away, so we listened to Moon River from Jerry’s list of over 9,000 songs loaded on his portable hard drive. We enjoyed a scenic drive along I-70 and the Colorado River. IMG_4196_thumb1

  We saw the first snow at Vail Pass.

 

We were hoping to see some leaf color in the aspens and we weren’t disappointed.  Vail, Beaver Creek and Copper Mountain ski areas looked lonely, but we know from past experience that things will perk up soon.  Bob and Joyce have been to Vail and Copper to ski some time ago.  Friends Lynn and Mike Bull will arrive soon at Copper for the winter season where they both work.  IMG_4190_thumb1   IMG_4216_thumb1
