Hello to All!
A little up-dating is required. Thanks for checking up on us. Erica has gotten over her anxiety about the school buses and her new locker. These were worrisome moments for all, believe me! School is going well and she is getting ready to start piano lessons again and learning volleyball basics. She got a chance to see her cousin Nikki play for the UNK Lopers in Denver this past weekend and hopefully she picked up a few pointers.

The job front is holding steady with signs of improvement. Sue has kept busy with the Gunnison Arts Center and Colin weathered his first major sales event over Labor Day weekend. (Ya gotta luv retail!) The owner was impressed enough with Colin's first six weeks to strongly suggest a promotion is coming up. (Hopefully a job promotion and not another sales promotion event.)


Colin had a little excitement in the back country while ATV-ing with relatives. He picked up a few bruises when he took his ATV off a small embankment. Fortunately some small aspen trees slowed the decent, albeit, rather abruptly. A special thank you goes out to the inventor of the winch. Only a bruised ego and thighs to show for the mishap. Despite the slight detour, the area was absolutely breathtaking to see. A couple more weeks will only improve the views as the aspens start changing colors . We'll try to keep you posted on some of those views.
