Steve and Judy's Travels!

Judy and I have been to REI to pick up some cold weather gear.  There isn’t much of that available in South Texas, so we waited until Colorado to get it.  The weather cooperated to make that seem like a good idea; it was in the thirties with drizzle all day, turning to snow.  More snow tonight and major accumulation in the mountains.

Here is Henry sporting his raincoat and muttlucks before this evening’s snow.

Tonight’s dessert, compliments of Teigan and her friend Elise.

Here at St Vrain.

For a fine time at Becky and Brian’s.

Long pants!  It’s a cool day in Colorado and I thought it would be a good idea to see if I actually could wear long pants.  It was a challenge, but I made it through the entire day.  I still hope that there aren’t that many cold days in Alaska though…

Another picture of dinner at Becky’s, because this time Taylor was there too.

The head count is off by one, but it’s always off by at least that much at Becky and Brian’s.

Not really; but it was raining by the time we got to the Front Range.

Afternoon thunderstorm.  Crashes and booms.  Hail too.  The last loudest lightning strike had a very “clangy” reverberation to it.  We think it hit one of the metal picnic table shelters.

We’re settled in at St Vrain State Park.  We can visit Becky and family from here.

Here is the spot we left at Jackson Lake State Park.

And the morning light.
