Spring Time in Colorado

Muriel woke up early the other morning and something outside startled her. It was a couple of elk ouside the window looking in. When it got light we could see there was a herd outside and one of them left a nose print on the window, complete with a drip line (eeewwww). This morning we looked outside while in the study and saw some sure signs of Spring. There was a tom turkey strutting his stuff for a flock of hens. He thought he was so cool. At the same time we had a herd of elk hanging around. It is wonderful living here!

Here is a short video clip from what we observed this morning.

Poker Night Turns Into Pictionary Night

In the summer months we have a fun group who get together at Mac & Maria's (yes another M&M) every Wednesday for sand volleyball. In the months when we can't play volleyball each couple takes a turn at hosting a poker night. This happens about once a month. This past week is was our turn to host, unfortunatley Muriel got sick. Dee & Steve McPeek bailed us out and hosted the party at their place. After we all ate, we took a vote on who wanted to play poker vs who wanted to play Pictionary. Well Pictionary won out and it was guys vs the girls. This little news clip should give you an idea of the outcome ;-)
