Got to bed late last night after arriving here about 7:00 or so.
So good to finally be here. And I don't have to set up and tear
down everyday. That's a welcome break! They are so gracious
to me, too! Great hosts!
Went to Terry's Sat. AM prayer group with a couple of
other guys from his church. After that and breakfast, the
Kraus family and I took a ride up into the surrounding hills.
We went to Bishop's Castle, a rock "castle" being built by a
local eccentric, which sits on government land as I
understand it. What a site! I guess the guy has been
working on it since the early 70's. He posts his political views
about the government on several large signs around the site.
Later in the day we drove into Peublo to get some supplies.
We met Amber (their daughter) at Borders and chatted for
over an hour. In the meantime, the rain blew in and we drove
home in a downpour. By the time we got to their home in Rye, CO
the rain had quit. We spent the evening after dinner just visiting
and catching up since it had been a couple of years since we'd
been together.
