Greetings from Greeley!

Brain cancer is...

 ...hugging our son Zach.

Hurrah!  Day Eight of our Southwest Adventure landed us in Greeley, Colorado.  We hugged Zach for the first time in six months.  Tomorrow Summer (who worked late tonight) will get her hugs.  The three of us started our visit with great conversation over dinner.

Don't let that backdrop in the top picture trick you.  Yes, Zach is at the end of that particular rainbow, but it was about 18 degrees this evening.  Who cares about the weather though?  We have time with our kids!

The trip north from Grand Junction took us over the Rockies and was just beautiful.  Surprise!  Another day of gorgeous scenery!  Here are a few pics of the 300-mile drive.

The Colorado River kept us company much of the way.

Up we went!

We saw ski areas we'd only heard of, like Vail and Breckenridge.

At the summit, nearly 11,000 feet.

Our first "fresh powder" rest area.

Snow plowed?  Enough.


Today was a day of particular beauty.  We hope your day had loveliness too.
