Spring Snow

It's Spring in Colorado. Sunny one minute, snowing the next minute.

A couple Saturday's ago we went to ABasin to celebrate Kristi's birthday at the "beach." It snowed the whole day. Luckily Tracy wore her french fry outfit which kept her pretty dry. Unfortunately Big Mac did not make it to the slopes. Stan was running a little late that morning from a cancelled flight Friday night (first cancelled flight in a year and a half...not bad). But he did make it for a couple runs. Even Frisco got to enjoy the "beach" a little...running around with all the other dogs. If you're ever out in Colorado...you definitely need to experience ABasin and it's beach front.

Sunday we hit Keystone for all the powder from the day before. Mark & Brian joined us as we hiked the Outback. About a 30 minute hike to enjoy fresh tracks. We took the CAT for a second run (a 5 min ride for $5).

This past weekend we rode again at Keystone and then enjoyed Keystone's Blues & BBQ fest before heading over to Copper Mountain for the first week of their Sunsation series. De La Soul played a shortened show while the snow came down. Ran into a bunch a people, including Geoff and Sarah and their new baby girl, Kaelin; Chris and Kim and their baby, Grady; Mary and Noah up from Durango; Kristi was up from Denver; and even Erica was feeling good enough to make it out (had sinus surgery a couple weeks ago).

Sunday, we hit up Breckenridge for a nice groomer day. Monday was racquetball where Tracy finally won a game. Monumental!!

Now that Tracy is done with snowboard instructing...she is a full time Realtor with Coldwell Banker. Ready to help you buy a beautiful mountain home in the Rockies!!

Enjoy the pix from our day at Keystone.
