Heading For The Rocky Mountains
Hello everyone.
It is now offical, David has accepted a visiting writer's position at Colorado College so we'll be heading for the Rocky mountains at the end of August! It's a nine month stint so we'll return in May to Massachusetts (there are possibilities that the Job would be extended). We're pretty excited as the rockies will be right on our doorstep. So all you outdoor enthusiasts ...especially climbers...should seriously consider a visit.
The above photos are of The Garden of the Gods an area right beside Colorado Springs (the city we'll be based in)... giant sandstone rock formations famous with climbers and pretty stunning to look at. I may even try my hand ( and feet) at climbing, I know the kids want to...we'll find a littler boulder for them!
Mum and Dad are booked first and will be coming to see the yellow aspen trees quivering in the Fall. We're hoping to join some of the family in New Zealand as David will have a chunk of time off over winter (summer in NZ).......so we have quite a bit of traveling planned for the coming year!
