From the front deck…the southern end of the front range…not sure that is correct but the mountains are magnificent.

This evening, even from a great distance, the rugged peaks stood against a picture perfect sky like a still life.

And then the waxing moon, shining through the bare branches of a front yard aspen against the sunset hues…a perfectly beautiful evening to cap a perfectly beautiful time with family.

Bear and I will point Wild Thing east and then north tomorrow mid-morning…headed for home.

Yesterday (Wednesday), I took a long lunch and Bear and I went up to the ski area to meet my folks for lunch. Not a cloud in the sky, 20F which feels much warmer at nearly 10,000 feet altitude and new snow.

Bill, on his way in.

Mama, just after.

A good day on the slopes.

I love you guys :)!

I’ve had a wonderful visit. I’m looking forward to the trip home, to being home but I don’t want to leave… But, a good weather window exists and I’m planning on a morning departure tomorrow.
