Train ride

Another busy day! Rode the Rio Grande Scenic Railroad out to the top of La Veta Pass where some very enjoyable music and entertainment was presented in a natural ampitheatre run by solar and wind power.  Kelly, Teresa & I boarded the train at about 9:45, and returned around 5:00.  One highlight of the trip was the 7 or 8 bears sighted alongside the track in one area.  Later, K & T came over & we had one last evening of visiting - they will leave early in the morning to go to Colorado Springs & pick up Teresa's Mom, then return to Kansas.  They will be driving to Lawrence first to help Kristen & Leah move, then on home to Wichita on Sunday.  I will have a few days of solitude before driving to Dodge City next week to meet Kerry & Tracey and pick up John & Sydney.  I will miss my company, no doubt about it, but if I'm going to pursue this lifestyle, I'd better expect to be alone quite a bit of the time!
