Aspen, CO - Saturday, 9 Jul 2022, 10:30am

This morning we got up early, packed our bags and loaded the truck, checked out from our hotel in Glenwood Springs, and drove an hour south to Aspen. It's part of an audible we called a few days ago to realize an aspiration of mine since 1990, thirty-two years ago, to visit the place in this picture:

Just getting to Aspen wasn't the end of the story. From there we had to park and ride a bus 25 minutes up to the lake. Bus tickets are limited; Saturday was the only day this trip I was able to find 2 seats at a reasonable time, which meant extending our trip from Saturday to Sunday in addition to rebooking a few nights of hotels. But we did all that, and now.....
