My last 6Mo in the navy was @ Alameda, even went out and got a job @ Gerber as security guard, fun times. That was in the 70s. Met a guy last week checking out some Scalas, over priced junk. ran from that deal....... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarheel Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 Breakfast with 16 other old geezers this morning.....mostly high school chums. Lot of lies told. Haven't seen Karl the water bug in a day now. Laying low I guess. It's Friday worker bees. Suppose to see the sun after two weeks of rain. Yard work on the agenda 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckAb3 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Carla the water bug, huh? Almost sounds like a song title. Jeff, you will enjoy our central mountains. That's a great drive. We did it last month on our way to Durango and the Mesa Verde. Enjoy. Not a lot to report. Good jam session with guitar bud yesterday afternoon. Yard work today and HT movie tonight. Happy Friday guys. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff, that's a lot to take in on one road trip but I know you'll enjoy it. Hard to say what are 'must sees' since there is so much stunning beauty in Colorado and along that route, but personally I/we love the collegiate peaks along 285, Estes Park (many elk), and Winter Park. Also, since you are going through Silverthorne, you may want to drive to Breckenridge and Keystone, which are just west of there. I would also take the time to see if the road up Mount Evans is still open ...I think I heard on the news that it is already closed for the season. That happens out here for various reasons, but mostly it's the weather at high elevation. Will give this some more thought and get back if I get any brainstorms.......Chuck 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going to all those spots, except Breckenridge. We will miss it by only a matter of a handful of miles. Do you think it would be a mistake to pass it up? We planned to drive up Mt. Evans. I hope it's not already closed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff, if you are going to Keystone, that's good enough. They have a gondola which will take you to a summit even if you are not skiing. I'd google it to make sure it's operational now since it's a bit early for ski season (or just call the resort at Keystone and ask). Stunning views. I am almost sure that the road up Mt Evans is closed per a local newscast a few weeks ago, but there's a website for Mt Evans which will confirm or not. If it is closed for the season, you could use the time to hit both Breck and Keystone. They are just a few miles apart. Have fun! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
