We watched the Lake City parade. It was really cute. These are only about a fourth of the pictures we took but the internet connection was so slow that I became tired of waiting for the to load.
After the parade, we took the Jeep up to the summit on
Cinnamon Pass. It was a good trip and we
saw a lot more snow on the mountains.
After we got back, I washed the Jeep and aired the tires back up. On both trips to the passes, I had aired the
tires down to 18 pounds, which made a huge difference in how smooth it rode.
Bryce and Deborah climbed the highest peak shown in the following picture while they were in the area last year. It is over 14,000 feet tall.

We left the MH this morning at 10:00 to do a ride with the
Can Am up to the Deer Lakes area off of the Slumgullion Pass. We rode all the way over to the work center,
where we ate our little lunch. On the
way back, we rode the old stagecoach route back into the country. It was a 12 mile trip and very interesting,
thinking about the fact that stage coaches actually went through rough
country. The entire trip was 88 miles,
which was the most we have done on one day.
It starting raining like crazy while we were out so we put our rain
suits on but riding at 30 to 40 mph in the rain has a tendency to drive it into
every crack the water can find. When we
got back to the care to load up, it was 49 degrees!
The miracle of the whole trip was the fact that it didn't hurt Toni's shoulder. Yay! She is cured!
