We took the traditional ride to the top on the ski lift.
A thunderstorm came and cut our excursion short. My son did however manage to get sunburned on the tops of his feet.
We stopped on the way back at Elizabeth Town. It's a ghost town between Eagle's Nest and Red River. I had always wanted to stop there as a kid so now was the perfect time to make my friends and family take a side-trip. For years there was this cool arched wall ruin there and this year I noticed that a lot of it had fallen down. It was sad but the history of the place was very interesting. There is a small private museum there run by a solitary lady. It was touching.
This is what it looked like when I was a kid.
Here's what it looks like now.
In one of the barns I found this car. It had been decorated for a parade.
It's an 1903 Curved Dash Oldsmobile.
It still ran.
