Ah, our annual trip to Vail CO has come and gone. This year
we had no weather issues with the exception of a 5-minute snow storm atop
Copper Mountain – it came it went the blue skies returned. There was little
snow fall this past winter and many of the hikes – Copper Mountain in
particular – which are normally still snowed in were open, and worse, dry.
Friends, food, hikes, Jacuzzis and wonderful idle mountain moments.
