Lisa's Dad Visits

Hey! It's been awhile since our last posting, so hopefully this will be the resurgence this blog needs. Anyway... Lisa's dad joined us last weekend. He flew in by himself for 3 brief days to get a quick taste of his grandkids and checkout Colorado in the winter. That is if you can call consistent days in the mid-60's - the winter.

We practically killed him (and us) driving all around the area. First, Lisa took him from the airport to the Denver aquarium and the Air Force Academy. After a brief night's rest, we were off to Denver where we visited Red Rock Ampitheater (where U2's video for Sunday Bloody Sunday was filmed). This place has about 300 stairs -- who knew? After that, the hightlight - the factor tour at Coor's Brewing (did you know the make Blue Moon).

The next day we were up bright and early for church before a 200 mile road trip out to Breckenridge. Tip: Eastbound I-70 on Sunday afternoon during ski season is worse that westbound MD-50 coming back from the beach in July.

Here are some pics to enjoy:
