The snowstorm in Denver that closed the city & the airport for a couple days before Christmas was awesome – lots of it (30 inches at our house), in a very short period. We’re still digging out and it is snowing again…
A driving path was cleared via the big snow-blower by our neighbor Paul (who is visible behind the dog), and other neighbors worked to clear driveways using the smaller snow-blowers. I was in San Francisco during this blizzard, so I only have the photos. But I’m home now, and as mentioned above it is snowing again… forecast is for another 16 inches.
We loaded the trailer and drove to Buena Vista, Colorado for the Fourth of July 2003. There are miles of Forest Service trails in the area, and we did some four wheeling in addition to riding.
I went skydiving for my birthday in 2003. I’d wanted to do this for a long time, so this was as good a time as any other.
These photos are a bit embarassing – my arms and legs are in very goofy positions… but it was a blast! Stepping out of the plane was literally as scary a thing as I’ve ever done. Note the look of terror on my face – this was real. But that faded within about 2 seconds, and the rest of the way down was simply incredible. But I still looked goofy… oh well.
