I know.... Aspen is the only one on that list I haven't been to. Breckinridge is my favorite. Love it--- been way too long!

I bet!!! The last time I was there was August 04 (!!!) I brought Andrew out and we stayed with my brother in Denver. We did an overnight at Breckenridge, had fun on the slide that goes down the hill under the lifts. And a giant trapeze thing. Fun with the family! The time before that was with my sister in 2000, climbing a 14er just outside of town---- training for Kili. And then all the times skiing there with her and my brothers. Really special memories there!!!!

I was there from 00 to 08..I think 04 was the year Martin S and Roy and Dee came out and spent a week....Lena was born there in 03....
magical place indeed

you probably hiked Quandry if it was a 14er close to town

Ooooh! I wonder if the bubbles are different at 8000 feet?

yes..everything is different...its a whole different method of cooking....water comes to a boil at a lower temp and bubbly stuff goes flat fast

OK then. Either I will have to drink faster, or I shan't go there.

if you drink faster at 8000 feet you will get to an interesting buzz rather quickly.....

and where we were at 11,000 feet gets even more interesting....

everyone is a cheap date....LOL
