Laurie,
Your trip to Denver sounds great. It reminds me of my visit to a friend in Denver for Xmas several years ago. My friends back East are very impressed when I tell them that I drove Loveland Pass in winter -- me, with motion sickness. I well remember those hairpin turns, the packed snow under the tires, and the steepness of the road as we approached 11,900 ft. Coming back down the mountain near dusk, we saw Denver at the foot of the mountain, with the start of the Great Plains and a rosy pink sky behind it. At one point, I believe I saw a cowboy walking his horse by a creek on the side of the highway, or is that just something that happens to your mind out there with so much beauty all around?
Merry Xmas and Happy New Year!
Pauline

What a lovely Christmas you had! I can totally vouche for those living in Cleveland and Cincinnati! In Cleveland it was about 10 degrees with 25 inches of snow! Crazyness. It was fun though! Especailly when the weather was so bad 2 days before and Christmas they weren't plowing! I couldn't go anywhere. I like snow!
