Default What A Find!! PIC

Just got back from the Rocky Mountains in Colorado for our 31st wedding anniversary. We did not take the Corvette for the trip, but while out there we found this honey of a deal in of all places, a thrift shop in Estes Park. What do you think for just a dollar?? Now, if I can just keep the cat off of it...





The blanket even goes with our choice of colors in our living room. To say the least, I am quite pleased.

Good find.

We like Estes Park and have gone there a bunch of times and stayed in a cabin right along the river. It was fun and we hope to go back soon. We hit all the tourist trap shops downtown. Ate too much pizza downtown too but can't remember the name of the place.

You should have taken your vette though. On one vacation there I bought my gold '87 4+3. As we came into town there was a go cart track. I said that looks like fun, then I realized I was in a corvette with a lot of great mountain roads around. Never made it to the go cart track, but we put a lot of mountain road miles on the car that year. We even got 30.1 mpg on the trip home to Illinois.
