Easy Breezy Colorado

Colorado was a fun and easy going trip. We went with our old neighbor Neil, his girlfriend and Ken's co-worker Jeremy. We stayed in a condo in Breckenridge with 12 other people, mostly from Jeremy's family. Had a wonderful time with everyone and Jeremy's family; they are dairy farmers from southern Illinois. On our trip we went on two major excursions, one- begin dog sledding. The other,- going on the snow cats aka groomers that plow the mountain after everyone has finished skiing. We also rode the gondola and went to the Breckenridge Brewery. The drive to Colorado was very simple, straight on I-70. Overall, it was a very relaxing trip, spent a lot of time in the hot tub, seeing the town, reading books, and enjoying the scenery...

Trey, our driver who happened to be an accountant turned snow enthusiast. Him and Kenny talked about The Fed for part of the ride =)


on the ride we had spectacular views of peak 8 and peak 9, and were able to see Keystone (another mountain)
