CDsSister's blog: A Beautiful Mountain Drive

Posted on Aug 4, 2012 12:32 PM

Yesterday was a beautiful day for a mountain drive. It was to be 98 in Denver.

I wanted to see if my ear problem would be a problem when I went to altitude.

I drove over the divide to Silverthorn and back through Silver Plume.  That charming Victorian town has really started to deteriorate.  How sad. I did not stop as everything looked closed up.

I then drove over the road to Echo Lake.  Did not go up to Mount Evans as I had began to get tired.

I tried to spot some mountain flowers which were in spots I could photograph but they were always just at the bends or drop offs so did not get any pictures.

I got one or two vista pictures.  Should have taken more but......

"Next time", as they say....

Today is a pleasant 80 degree day after 24 at 90+.  I am luxurating in it, however we are right back to the 90s for next week.  Oh well, winter will be here soon enough and I will be lamenting that too.
