It was "old folks trying to act young and be cool in the mountains, by Buena Vista, to kick off the summer" weekend. I think we did a great job of looking at least 10 years younger then our actual age...but we blew it when the conversations around the campfire centered on retirement income, our aches and pains, visits to the doctor, and grandkids. We had a blast riding the ATV's up to old mining sites or Kayaking across a windy lake to tour some old buildings. I think 60 is the new 40.
This was our campsite and mom is waking up on a chilly morning.
Mom was having so much fun she didn't even scream on these narrow and steep ATV roads.
I got a rare photo of the Goddess of the Lost Mine, she looks quite striking in the mid day sun.
This was on old remote brothel for the rich folks in Leadville during it's heyday. it is a very large building for it's day. The winter's are long and cold in the mountains.

That looks like a ton of fun Dad! And you do look like you are 40!
Dot can do a great sales job for Bunie but can she beat grandkids?
