Good Pictures and Thanksgiving Limbo



Those pictures of Rachael are fantastic- they sure do grow up fast! I know it's just around the corner for us. As soon as kate ordered a Christmas card with a montage of photos of the kids, we managed to get a decent shot of the three of them together. We went for a hike up Sunshine Canyon and we got a very cool close up view of the Fourmile fire burn area. We hiked around the edge of the burn area, crossing from the areas that weren't burned into areas that had clearly had a very intense fire. It was a day where there was fog and clouds stuck down low in town and we were above the cloud layer- it made for some great atmospheric photos- the kids even cooperated for some group shots. Our plan was to head to Durango tomorrow to spend Thanksgiving with the Bowers, but there's been a huge storm that's been hammering southern Colorado- Wolf Creek Pass is supposed to get 4 feet of snow over the next 48 hours, and the NOAA website has posted a traveler's advisory stating that travel conditions will be "life-threatening". For now, we're sitting tight in Boulder and seeing what shapes up with the storm- if it clears up by Tuesday, we'll head out. For now, we're relaxing at home and enjoying the rec. center pool and the nascent "Dellwood Freeride Park" My first attempt at emebedding a video- it's short, so I hope it works! Congratulations, Rachael!
