CO, part 1

Andy and I are spending the week up in Frisco, CO.  That means lots of hiking, relaxing, pool/hot tubing, and eating good food.  Andy has been coming up here in the summer for over 25 years.  We are looking forward to bringing Jack next year.  I told Andy that since I am carrying Jack along with me for all of the hikes this year, that he gets him next year (and the next)!
Here is a nature belly shot at the top of a hike.  I'm feeling surprising well for all of the activity, elevation, and lack of oxygen.  No problem!  It's nice that I'm able to lay out by the pool with my feet up in the afternoons.
Yesterday Andy rode up hill 14 miles from Frisco, through Copper, and up to Vail pass.  This is a really fun ride when you are coming down, but he had it on his list to ride UP it.  It only took him 1 hour, 20 minutes to make it up (and about 30 minutes to cruise down).  Tomorrow he is hiking Mt. Elbert, a 14,000ft+ elevation mountain.  He certainly doesn't stop when he's on vacation!

I think Andy carrying Jack for the next two years sounds like a fabulous trade off! :) You look great, enjoy your relaxing vacation.
