The Great Retirement Journey continues as our "family" of 38 years ago regroups in Colorado!
Acclimated for 3 days at 10,000 feet then hiked up toward the Continental Divide. Tented just before a huge thunderstorm hit! After 5 days we are finally taking a rest day in Breckenridge, then back up to the Tenmile ridge on Friday. Wonderful weather and times reconnecting with dear friends who always have your back on the trail!! |
Heading out, clean and happy.

Finally, we reached the Divide
(Tim Geoghegan was taking the pic - and it was cold!).
