Up to higher ground

Saturday June 8, 2019

We got up had breakfast at  home, then about 9:45 we headed up to Matt and Shari's for our planned hike.  She said it only about a mile long.....no problem, what she didn't tell us it was straight up about

Finally made it to the top.

1000 feet.  Brad and I made it, but we were both glad for the flat land at the top and the easy walk down....no up hill both directions to this story.  Back to the house where we had burgers for lunch and just hung out for a while.  We headed home about 3:30, a short walk or two for Rudy, he was exhausted as well and we were all off to bed early.

Breakfast here then about 12:00 we headed out to Broomfield to meet with Morgan.  She has to do an interview on somebody over 65 years about the health history, so Pappy was the chosen guinea pig.  We all get there about 1:00, order lunch and the interview begins.  It wasn't too bad and only lasted about an hour.  After that we stopped at a wine shop, a Caribou coffee shop, Kohl's (no luck on the jeans Diane wanted) and then we headed home with a detour to the Red Horse wearing a gas mask.  

                                                 

 The horse was made to remember all who gave their lives here at Rocky Flats making the plutonium triggers.  A development now resides on the property.

After breakfast we started packing for the 25 mile drive up I70 to the Central City KOA.  We didn't hook the truck up Diane took it to get prescriptions while I drove up the mountain.  We parked and were set up by 11:45.  I70 is quite steep and windy with 7% grades but the seven miles to Central City were worse.  After a short recovery we worked on getting all the paper work for the Moho finished.  A few phone calls needed made then off we headed to Idaho Springs.  About 1.5 mile away from the  CG Luke called, so back home and more work needed done for the warranty bill.

Beautiful sunset on our

way home from Shari's

Breakfast at home then we headed into Central City to walk around, check out casino's and have a little lunch. Home about 2:00 then 2:30 over to Shari's where I was making Lasagna for dinner.  Just as we were packing for Shari's Luke called for more questions from the warranty people.  The lasagna and visit with the O'Donnell's was great. We stayed until 7:30 and headed back.  On the way home we saw five mule deer (2 buck) and an elk.

After a quick breakfast we drove down the mountain and into town.  The big reason was to get the truck serviced but we also had lunch, got gas, and stocked up on wine. On the way back we stopped at an antique store and just as we walked in Luke called.  He had all the paper work done. We were so happy the end has come. No not quite, he is done but we must send it all in to the warranty people. Nothing of interest in the store so back home and left overs for dinners.

A beautiful day, breakfast on the grill, fixed the entry door, worked on repacking a little bit and then worked on the TV until it was time to go. Diane worked for a couple hours printing, coping, and sending stuff to the warranty place.   Lunch was to be steaks but they were still frozen solid, so tuna and salad then time to get cleaned up and to head into the casino's to meet Shari and Morgan.  We all had a fun time, no winners, but a fun time.
