Weekend Getaway

     Last weekend, Nick and I, plus about 12 friends stayed in a condo up in Silverthorne. Though Spring has arrived down in Denver, it was still cold and snowy in the mountains. We arrived Friday afternoon, and the weather was really nice. We had lunch at Breckenridge Brewery with a couple of Nick's friends. After, we headed back east towards Silverthorne. We headed up Wildernest Road leading out of Silverthorne, where there are seemingly endless amounts of condos. Finally, we arrived at the Snowscape. We were the first people there. We settled in for a little nap.




    It didn't take long for the first of our friends to show up. We all watched the Rockies game and hung out. After everyone had arrived, our friend Rob made us pizzas. We continued to watch the Rockies into the night (it was a 14 inning game) and played card games.



      Saturday was a bit overcast, and it was incredibly windy and chilly. Most of our friends went skiing, except for Nick, John, Leah, baby Waylon, and I. Nick, Leah, and I went for a walk. I got another nap in after wards, while everyone else went to the hot tub. Once everyone returned home we made tacos for dinner and played more games after.
     On Sunday, we had to leave by noon, so we woke up early to clean. It was snowing hard, and I-70 was snow packed over the pass. This made me pretty glad we were heading back to spring weather. Overall, it was nice to have a change of location for the weekend.
