Niwot, CO/Rocky Mountain National Park

We have been in Niwot, CO, visiting our good friends Al, Janet, and Sydney Lopez since July 24. It’s good to see them again, and we have been keeping busy bowling, going to the movies, a concert in the park, and eating and drinking at the local restaurants.

On Monday, July 27, we took Sydney into Rocky Mountain National Park. We drove through the park from east to west on Trail Ridge Road (the highest paved road in the continental United States) and came back on the south route (I-70 and then up 93). It was quite a drive. It was 90 degrees in Niwot when we left, and we didn’t even think about it being cold in the park. Thank goodness for the sweatshirts in the trunk of our car.
