Our Trip Begins

We launched our Aspen 2011 adventure yesterday by flying to Denver where we stayed overnight. Today we have plenty of time for sightseeing and a leisurely drive to Aspen.
We flew on Southwest instead of Delta - sure like that extra legroom! No travel issues and we had our rental car and were at our motel in under an hour from landing.
We had a very pleasant surprise at breakfast this morning. I saw two waffle makers and two dispensers so I drew one cup of batter from each. Only then did I notice that one batter was darker and turned into a blueberry waffle! This was in addition to a very nice breakfast setup with scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, etc. So we each had half of each waffle for our second course and are well fortified for the day ahead. So far Independence Pass is open so we're planning to take that route to Aspen. Once we get settled in at the Limelight we'll do our grocery shopping and get ready for the Chris Collins concert tonight.
On to Aspen!!!
