Great Friends Come to Boulder

The original plan for labor day weekend was to play in the hockey tournament against my old team from New Jersey, The Bridgewater Wings. Unfortunately the team fell apart due to (of all things) pregnancies - yes, that is a constant problem with women's hockey teams, but, yeah, two new baby wings! Well, our dear friends Blythe and Adam had already booked their flight, so lucky for us we got them for the whole weekend.
We had a blast. They are great people as when we hang out it is always "easy." No work involved we can do nothing and still always have a great time.
In between hockey we showed them all the Boulder hot spots, went on some bike rides and did a hike up red rocks. We went up into the mountains one day and stoppped at the Continental Divide . . . feels like the top of the world, but only the point where water goes to the Atlantic down one side or the Pacific ocean down the other. This was the first time I have been up there and there was no snow at all.

Here is a photo of Blythe and I . . .

And one of Michel and Adam . . .
