Things have been rather quiet lately. Saturday was a housekeeping day and on Sunday we went to the movies. After not doing much over the weekend, I really wanted to get out Monday, so we decided to go hiking. As I have often mentioned, Colorado weather changes rapidly, and a half a mile or so into our hike, it began to thunder. Oh great - another ride in the rain. We escaped the worst of it until we were on the grounds of the Academy when it began to rain hard and hail (of course). But the really scarey incident was when we saw a flash of lightening in the middle of the street in front of us. I was really glad to find cover.
Tuesday we went on a ride - actually the same ride as last week, but we reversed it so that it would look different. It really did not matter though, the scenery is so wonderful, we could do the same ride every day. In Canon City we stopped at a neat winery which was started by the Benedictine Fathers at the Holy Cross Abbey. Their wine was very good, but then you know how much I enjoy my wine. I would add pictures, but I forgot my camera! Here is a link: http://www.abbeywinery.com/
Yesterday we decided to take a hike along the railroad tracks near the RV Park. It was only going to be a 1 hour hike, but after missing our entrance back into the park, we were walking for almost 2 hours. Well, we got a good workout. Joseph then went to a Rotary meeting.
Today may be a movie day as rain is in the forcast and I am getting real tired of getting caught in the rain - especially when it hails!
