This 'N That

FINALLY we got to take a day to head to Buffalo Peaks and try the Razor out, hoping the dust wouldn't be as bad as the last time!  And it wasn't!!!  There are 2 places at Buffalo Peaks to ATV - but one can't be accessed from the other!  We were planning on going one place but when we got there, the highway was blocked off and closed - we had no idea why!  No problem - we headed to the other place and we were off!

What a beautiful day to ATV!  It felt great to be out in nature and see the beautiful scenery!


There was only a couple of people out on the trails - we stopped and talked to an older couple and asked about the highway being closed - they told us that portion of Buffalo Peaks isn't open anyway due to the fire last year!  Good to know!  Check out all the snow still on the mountains!


I did forget to mention that the day before we headed to Crested Butte to pick up a small fishing boat!  Glenn has been looking for a specific type of boat ever since we came back from Mexico - it's a welded boat instead of having rivets.  They are hard to come by!  He finally found one and immediately emailed the guy but the guy told him another guy was mailing him a deposit already.  Fast forward a couple of weeks and the guy emails back and says the deposit never came so the boat was Glenn's if he still wanted it!!  Glenn was thrilled - the boat also already had the beach wheels so it would be easy to get to the water - I LOVED that fact as it was a pain getting our neighbor's boat to the water last year!

So we drove over and picked up the boat, had a nice lunch at Almont and then headed back home.  Since it's 3 1/2 hours one way it took up the whole day!

I took Rayna over to the Butte Theater in Cripple Creek to see "Grease" for her birthday!  We had great seats and the show was awesome!!


The lighting on this next picture is awful due to the back lights but oh well!!  We were all smiles!


Last but not least, here is the plaque the girls got us for our birthdays!  Doesn't it look great?
