We had a great time visiting long time friends from when we worked at IBM and lived here from '82 to '86 plus lots of tourist time. It was so nice to pick up where we left off and to catch up with everybody!
Geoff has posted some photos on flickr - the link is to the left.
Here's a summary....
- A great dinner in an airplane (really!) restaurant with Amy and her family.
- A bike ride surrounded by red rocks spires in Colorado Springs followed by sips from the nearby springs.
- A Walnut Brewery lunch, near the Pearl Street Mall, with Yuma Circle neighbors John & Jamie. Plus a quick chat with one of Logan's and Brian's first pals, Nick. who is newly engaged and in the midst of planning a New Year's Eve Wedding.
- A relaxing visit with Andy who is the only person to have attended our wedding as well as the Bris of both Logan and Brian. We also met his delightful daughter, Sarah, who is an Art student in San Francisco.
- A visit to Margaret's and Dennis' 15th floor condo that overlooks Denver & the Rockies' stadium. Had fun dining with them in a nearby sports bar/cafe while the game was playing and the Rockie's comeback from being down 3-6 to win 14-11 delighted everybody.
- A great dinner with Diane and David. Jamie, Diane and I were charter members of a book club that they still belong to more than 25 years later! Ellyn received a nice list of recommended reading from Diane! :-)
- A tea-riffic tour of Celestial Seasons with yummy tea tastings!
- Really enjoyed two days in Rocky Mountain National Park with breathtaking views. After huffing in the high altitudes, I'm more appreciative of the oxygen we have at lower altitudes!
- Enjoyed a bike ride along Boulder Creek Path and, today, a bike ride along the Colorado River in Glenwood Canyon.
- Had a most relaxing swim in the enormous and renowned Glenwood Hot Springs pool. Of course, we couldn't help but remember back Brian's first swim, there, at the age of 3 months.
