I started writing more about last year on my flight to Colorado last weekend. Mary and I were going on vacation with four friends at Steamboat Springs and when I closed my laptop on that flight, 2007 began. Over the course of a week, we snowboard, skied, snowshoed, soaked in outdoor hot tubs, ate too much, slept just enough, went tubing and otherwise unwound. By the end of the trip, neither flight delays on Friday’s return trip nor not getting home until 5:30 am Saturday rankled us much (just don’t ask me about hauling luggage to the car at the airport, the ski bag needed to be kicked and cussed out, and that’s that, ok).
So, adios 2006 and olá 2007. There won’t be any summary of 2006. Instead, here’s some Steamboat Springs photos. (If you want to see larger versions, view them on Flickr).
