ok - I know I haven't posted in ages, I will try to do better in 2014!!
here are some pictures of our time at Christmas with Ralph at his home in Ridgway. We had a great time hanging out with he and Nori, Andrew (nori's son), and Daphne. We went ice climbing, skate skiing, on long walks, and had a great Christmas dinner with Ralph's good friends Angela and Jim.
Me - climbing for the first time in 2 years.
Me again. On WI-5 - not bad!!
Ralph - killing it, as usual.
Laea - sniffing out the prime rib on Christmas in her new holiday kerchief
Skiing in glorious sunshine at Top of the Pines. Ralph hooked me up with his friend Sara Ballantyne for a loop. Well - turns out Sara is a former UCI mountain bike world champion. so you can imagine the pace she set! pretty sure my lungs were bleeding at the end of the loop, but I had a great time!
View at Top of the Pines
View of the Sneffels Range from Ralph's front porch. Not bad!
Christmas morning walk with little Lancelot tucked in my coat.
