Jan and I got back from our Colorado get-away on Monday. We had a great time spending a few days with Jan's brother and sis-in-law, Kevin and Summer. We flew into Denver last Wednesday night and got up at 7AM the next morning to roll onto the slopes at Copper Mountain. Jan and I went by ourselves and got our ski on for the one day. It was fun for us since it had been several years since either of us had skied.
That night, we ate at an awesome place called Zengos and had some "quality, not quantity food." My very favorite was the mustard chipotle glazed beef short rib. It was the most tender piece of fabulous meat I have ever eaten, so much that I wish I were eating it right now instead of typing this mouth-watering blog entry.
Then, we spent a few days in a beautiful cabin in Buena Vista. There, we spent our time snow-shoeing, sledding, relaxing, eating great food, watching the UNC/Duke game, and even working on our application for the Amazing Race (more on that at a later time.) It was awesome to just get away from everything and enjoy God's gorgeous creation. I'll try to post a pic or two here later.
(I will have to post a separate entry and tell you about a couple of weird/funny things that happened while we were there.)
UPDATE:
As promised a couple of pictures...
