Breckenridge - January 2009

We just got back from our annual trip to Breckenridge, CO. We decided to try the train this year, since skiing requires so much luggage...boots, skis, poles, and layers of warm clothes. Amtrack doesn't charge extra for luggage! We left on New Year's Day at 2:00 pm and arrived in Denver about 8:00 the next morning. A bottle of wine and a great meal on board, helped us get through the night. Although we spend a week in Breckenridge, we were only able to get out to ski on four days becasue Wes was on the phone half the time with people from work trying to get the negotiations organized for the merger. I was glad I had my new little notebook with me! Except for the Ullr Fest Parade, it was a pretty quiet week with just the two of us there! A second honeymoon?? .... Tahiti was a lot warmer!
