Subject: Re: THURSDAY THE 29TH by teebee on 2022/9/29 14:08:02 Morning guys... Yesterday we were up early and went down to the high school for "Meet me at the Pole", a quick prayer service for anyone who wants to attend. Put on by our FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes). Quite a few in attendance. Then back home to pack up and head west. It was a cool start, low 50s when we left. Got to Canon City about noon (mountain time). 007 was a dream to drive and looks good to boot. After lunch we went out to the "Royal Gorge" (referred to by me as the Royal Gouge). Things have changed quite a bit since we were last there. 9 years ago, a wild fire went through the park and burned nearly everything down, 28 of 30 building in the park were burned to the ground, the bridge had just minor damage and the tram that runs across had to have the cables that run it replaced as they were nearly melted from the heat on the south side. We rode the tram across and then walked back across the bridge. Then on the way back to the motel, we drove "Skyline Drive", a narrow one way road up the spine of a mountain back into Canon City. Today, we will meet up with the team as they do a few things before running this afternoon. After the meet is over, we'll head back home, just a short 4 hours driving time.            |
