Breckenridge!!

Today brings the cross-county friend, dog and food adventure nearly back to the continental divide, last crossed in New Mexico, and now just a few miles off to the east from high upon the 10 mile range above Breckenridge, Colorado. More wonderful friends and their lovely homes and more dog loving. Leaving my buddy, Arti in Sausalito, crossing 3 states - 3 big states, and finding Bella, the dark chocolate love machine and her buddy, Chelsea in the home of Jay and Deb on Peak 7, underneath the slopes of Breck. I slept through the chill of the 10,000 foot morning and to find today here warming and lovely, the thin, brilliant blue sky, some cumulus now building, the breezes through the aspens, make for a nice vacation Saturday morning. Some live music again in the picture; another wonderful day on Earth.
The last two days have covered over a thousand miles and as mentioned three big states. The delta of California, the Sierra foothills and then the real Mountains over Donner Pass (didn't stop for a snack:) and into the Basin and Range of Nevada, tints of green lingering, Utah and mirages in the salt flats, Salt Lake, and now Colorado.
More later...
