This morning I’m on my way up to Rocky Mountain National Park for the annual camping trip. It’ll be just me after the first day since the women have finally all three elected to get out of the camping business. They will come up for the afternoon and a BBQ dinner, then back to the flatland this evening.
Michelle stopped doing any more than one-nighters or day trips about five years ago, and the girls have taken turns skipping a year on-and-off since around that time as well. What a bunch of spoiled tenderfoot pikers they are!
I’m hoping I’ll be late enough in the season at mid-June to get across the snow field on the upper Fern Lake trail this year. Water will be very high everywhere due to higher than average snowfall last winter. Also this year I will be trying out a new site in the Moraine Park campground: B166. Should be a good trip. Looking forward to coming back Friday and steeling myself for my last six Mission Planner shifts to wrap up my portion of the Ikonos ops gig after that.
