| Vern and Mom on the way to ski Friday morning. We started off at Beaver Run and Vern and Rob led the way for us. My favorite run is 4 O'Clock-a little bit of a blue mixed with a green. |

| Colorado is majestic and beautiful. |

We all had a great day skiing in Breck last weekend. We flew into Colorado Springs via Allegiant Air Lines (we are still on the fence about about whether we will fly them again...) Thursday night. We headed home and straight to bed as we had an early morning. Friday morning we were up bright and early and heading to Breck. Got to Breck and were able to check into our hotels early and then headed to the ski slopes. Spent all day skiing and that night headed into town for dinner at Bubba Gumps Restaurant...by this point my altitude sickness was kicking in and I had NO appetite. Afterwards, Vern and Rob wanted some ice cream (crazyguys!) so we headed to an ice cream parlor and played a game. Saturday morning my mom was extremely sick with altitude sickness so while Vern and Rob hit the slopes we checked out at oxygen bar hoping that would make her feel better...it didnt :( That afternoon she stayed in while I headed up to the Grand Lodge on Peak 7 to check out the hot tub and outdoor pool with Vern and Rob. We had a nice time relaxing. That night, we used a Restaurants.com voucher for dinner at Spencers where everyone (but me) got the All You Can Eat Prime Rib dinner, lol. Sunday morning we headed back up to the Grand Lodge for our timeshare talk which we kindly denied and were back on our way to Colorado Springs by 11. Lunch in Manitou then home to relax. That night, my dad picked us up and we had a delicious dinner at a new Mongolian BBQ in Colorado Springs and then he dropped us off at the airport. Except for the altitude sickness, all in all, this was a successful trip!
