It was wonderful to ‘get away’ with our family this past weekend. We left early Saturday morning for Beaver Creek, where we stayed in a suite at the new Westin Riverfront Resort and Spa. We first visited Minturn Market before heading to the hotel to get settled and let Robin take her nap. In the afternoon we went to the Village, where Lilly had fun doing the trampoline jump and rock climbing and Robin was happy as can be climbing up and down the stairs and escalators, lol. The girls played in the fountains and we had a nice dinner before literally running both girls through an unforseen downpour on our way back to the hotel. The most fun we’ve had in the rain! That night the girls slept in the living room area while Bill and I watched the first full day of Olympic coverage. We spent Sunday at Vail, walking around the town and taking the gondola up to Eagle’s Nest, where we hiked around and had lunch. We drove home around lunch time and got caught in some traffic – and hail! – on our way home. It was a fun, although brief, vacation and we look forward to heading back to the same hotel very soon.
