We're all "safe thus far."

Ellen and I have arrived safely in Alpine and John and Cynthia have arrived safely in Westminster. They had the worst of it - freezing rain much of the way up Route 5 from Springfield to Putney. They stayed in a motel last night and came home today.

We had good roads, good weather, all the way from Denver to Alpine. We stayed in a motel in Rawlins, WY  last night, then drove to Alpine today.

Katie picked up her new skis, boots and poles today and loves them:
