Winter Park is an Aspen/Vail sort of ski resort, full of swanky condos and beautiful mountain homes. And more being built -- a very large set of hotels and apartments at the base of the ski runs. Jeff's boss, Tim, has a three-level house in the town of Winter Park, all nicely furnished and set up to easily accommodate our group of eight -- one family unit per level.
Sunday morning we took in a arts and craft fair, then got back to the house in time to welcome Kevin, Kellie, Andrew, Daniel, Christine, and Jan, still in CO. They had spent Saturday in the mountains and we had invited them to stop by for a cookout. Here are a few scenes. I apologize for not getting any pictures of Jan -- maybe Mike or Jeff can supply some of their photos for a future update. Anyhow, had a fine meal then took a walk along a stream that runs through WP.
Here are a few pix:

After the McCubbins family departed in late afternoon to return to Castle Rock, some of us took a short hike near the ski area. A couple of scenes:
It had been cloudy and a little rainy on Sunday. Monday dawned fair and mild, so we decided to spend most of the day at the ski resort, with their alpine slide as the main attraction. They have a pair of nice long tracks, you can go really fast, and only once or twice did any of us get stuck behind a slow rider. Lines were not long, either, most of the time. The summer season is nearing an end and school has started in many areas.
