Wednesday was a whirlwind, first taking in Mile High Stadium the home of the Denver Broncos, Boulder (lunching on Pearl Street), Nederland (hippy village, bragging of their marijuana sells), then to dinner at the Spinney's reconnecting with Betsy's son John. Again no pictures--what is wrong with us?
On Thursday, we headed to the mountains for Breckenridge Ski Resort. Then on Friday we took the Coors Tour in Golden, CO--nearby, and lunched at Sassafras--yum. Red Rocks (Tribute 1964--the Beetles) is an outdoor venue for musical events and the rock acoustics are supposed to enhance the sound. We had an absolutely perfect evening rocking out to the sounds of our youth.

| Old stadium --part of it is in the parking lot |
 |
| They loved Super Bowl 50 --Peyton's last game |
 |
| Truly a mile in elevation |
 |
| The guy that sits in the orange eye wears orange attire --everyone that sits in the Bronco wears the appropriate color --all paid for by the Organization |
 |
| The Broncos love Peyton too |
 |
| Pat Bowlen is the owner of the Broncos and he and his wife both have altzehiemers--soap opera ensues as to which of their 7 children will take over--right now a panel of 3 independent executives run the organization |

| You can see the different slopes coming down the Breckenridge mountain |

Even in summer there was a good size tourist crowd
