We are in Monument Colorado and our kids are on the train to Winterpark to ski as I write this. Dan and I are looking forward to playing with our grandkids today. There is fresh snow on the ground and we are hoping to get outside to play later.
The trip out yesterday was fun. Everything went as expected until we noticed the Smokey Hill Winery outlet store at the Wilson exit on I70. Most of you know we cannot pass an opportunity to taste a little vino. We were pleasantly surprised and ended up buying several bottles to share with our family.
Peg over at Prairie Musings often writes about eating at the Made from Scratch cafe in Wilson. Since we were so close, we ventured over there for lunch. It was delicious. The homemade boroughs--mine had BBQ pork and Dan had hamburger and cheese-- were huge--half was enough for me. We purchased four more to bring with us to share. We will enjoy them later today.
Before heading west, we took a quick tour of Wilson. It has beautiful stone buildings. The old jail appears to be made from the local post rocks..jpg)
Somewhere between Burlington and Limon we hit wind that had trucks slowed to a crawl and tumbleweeds beating on our car. At time we had complete whiteout. We finally arrived here after a slow drive even between Limon and the Springs. Thankfully all went well.
I need to tend to my charges. I will post pictures later today.
