Weekend in Denver and Louisville

Chris and Virginia gave Bart tickets to a Rockies game as a 70th birthday present.  We went on Saturday and watched them beat the Dodgers.  Yahoo!

A nice park-like area near right center field.

Our seats were terrific - on the first base line and 7 rows from the dugout.

Looking back toward home plate from center field.

We spent Friday and Saturday nights in Louisville - dinner on Friday with Jil and Chance and all the girls at Lucky Pie.  After the ball game, Saturday, we hurried back to Louisville to hear Robert Earl Keen.

Kettle Ponds Hike

On Wednesday, we took a 6.5 mile hike to an unnamed lake, past many kettle ponds, like the one below.

The unnamed lake.  We named it Serenity Lake.

Shrine Mountain Hike

Jil and the girls came up Tuesday afternoon and on Wednesday we took a 4.2 mile hike up Shrine Mountain.  There were beautiful wildflowers all along the way, and there was snow at a little over 11,800'!

Back in Keystone

On Wednesday we left hot Tucson for the mountains of Colorado.  Stayed overnight in Santa Fe. Cactus traveled well and was at home everywhere.

We arrived Thursday afternoon and woke up Friday to cool (65 degrees cooler than Tucson) Colorado.

Saturday was the first day of the Bluegrass and Beer Festival in Keystone.
