THIS is what it’s all about.
The snow and ice are behind us after literally being frozen
in up in Loveland Colorado. Back at home, we saw our facebook friends declaring
themselves new “lakefront” property owners when torrential rains caused
flooding in the Midwest.
The good news – Paul dug us out of close to twenty inches of
rapidly melting snow. Several coffee pots of hot water unfroze the motor home
jacks and he replaced the sewer hose that had snapped in two in the cold. Not
all travel is glamorous.
The sun was out and in true Colorado fashion, the trip down
I25 was beautiful, the front range glistening in what was now a dusting of
snow. Our house sitter let us know our home was above water and everything was
well there. Whew.
At Pikes Peak International Raceway we parked in the RV
section of the infield. Our son arrived for his first drive in his newly
restored 1964 Lotus Super Seven. This car has been a member of the family since 1969.
You can see how cool the car looks in the photos. What you can’t see is the
grin of delight on his face after driving it in its new condition.The first picture is what it looked like when Paul originally bought it.
More driving and racing today and tomorrow, with forecasted
highs in the 60’s and plenty of warm Colorado sunshine.
