trip,animals, coffee, and classes

Sorry, time definitely got away from me. A very overdue post it is.  My trip over to CO Springs to see Mom was a fun one. We zoomed around doing lots of errands and enjoyed some lunches out and a great sushi dinner out with brother George and Linda. Thanks Mom!

Back on the snowshoe and cross country skiing schedule. Cross country skiing was fun and we continue to improve. Well, ha - we're still on their "green" trails, so a long way to go.

Crested Butte was hopping with people taking advantage of the holiday weekend. After lunch we stopped by the great coffee place, Camp 4 Coffee, to pick up some freshly ground. Won't work in my Kuerig though, regular coffee only.

crazy dog town - of course treats in the coffee place

Now the snowshoeing was a little bit more challenging. We'd had some snow and wind which made a lot of the trail non-existent and very deep. The photos don't quite show it, but some of the trekking was me sinking down over my knees. Extra exercise...

Animals popping out all over. Never know on any given day. One rancher has the first newborn calves we've seen. We counted 25. It's quite early, usually mid - March is the time. Early bird special on the bull visit last summer? And today was the buck with does crossing Main st. in Gunnison. They may have even crossed at the crosswalk.

Ok, I'll be honest, suddenly I am overwhelmed with all my classes, both online and physical.Mid-term test, weekly quizzes, chapter reading, video lectures, and paper to be researched and started for Gunnison country class Hmm...I'll you know what gives. It'd be fine if it wasn't all at the same time.
