Monday, September 7, 2015 Labor Day
Today we headed for the hills, ending in Estes Park.
What a mistake that was. We should have gone to
the Louisville Parade instead. Sadly, I had forgotten
all about it and Arren was in it. In any case there
we were in Estes Park along with a zillion other
folks. Every block was a parking lot, but we
were in now hurry and did a lot of looking and
watching the folks on the crowded sidewalks
and all the shops were open. No celebration of
Labor today.
Finally, hours later, it seemed. We arrived at
the visitor center for Rocky Mountain Nat'l
Park. We stopped there to use the facilities.
We'd been in the car THAT long! It started
to rain as we arrived and was really pouring
when we headed for the car. Part of the
reason for us being there was to see how I
did at a higher altitude. We had been at
8000 feet and now were closer to 7000. But,
I had had enough.
Robert spotted a restaurant so of hidden
behind a shopping center and since it was
now 1:00PM we stopped for lunch. It
was not busy in the restaurant, but a few
folks were still having lunch. The wait for
service was minimal and the lunch was quite
good.
After lunch we slowly got through Estes park
and went on home.
