Thursday On the way to Grand Lake, CO

We left Colorado Springs at 10:30 on the way to Grand Lake. It was a long way up....

Look at the altitude on the GPS and we're not at the top yet.

There is snow everywhere. Now we must go down.....

We made it to the Arapaho National Park, where we will stay until Monday, not counting the time we spend in town at the Grand Lake chili cook off. I'm using my mifi here but have great AT&T phone service. We took a drive to the town of Grand Lake, we thought we might stop at a grocery store for a loaf of bread, but all were over $4.50 so tomorrow we will head back to the town of Granby in hopes of cheaper food.;although today when we filled up with diesel we spent $485.00. What can I say about priorities?? LOL

Granby Lake and Grand Lake are big and beautiful although they lost a lot of trees due to the beetle infestation that killed most of the trees. We'll send more pics later.......
