A DIFFERENT THANKSGIVING

BC & I went to Aspen, CO for Thanksgiving this year. I believe this is one of only two Thanksgivings that we have not spent with family and friends and COOKED the traditional meals. It was a wonderful trip and Aspen is a beautiful village. Below are a few pics from the trip.

Bridge over Rio Grande River in downtown Aspen
The John Denver Memorial
Sopris Mountain






The Only Pass We Could Find Open-Note the Gate That Will Soon Be Closed




The Largest Living Organism in North America-A HUGE Grove Of Aspen Trees






Another View Of The Gate












We Found Vineyards & Winerys-SADLY They Were Not Open!



The last day we took a 300 mile drive and drove through much of North East Colorado. The change in the terrain is remarkable! A GREAT TRIP!
