14er Boulder Handshake

We abandoned camping for a while to a little western hospitality, first with Addison and Justin who took us to Eldorado Springs and cooked a mean steak. We met up with Shaggy and Mallorie at some place with good beer, views and good chemistry.   In Castle Rock we met with Gary and Roni who showed us cold beer and hot tub and The Journey.  As we go further west all the gold mines are replaced with ski resorts and Barnes n Nobles. So much for starting a new life as a 49er...
