Fun with Sally's brother and family



That is my brother Bill, "Huge Hefner", editor of Cagemate Magazine, ready to walk in the 6th annual Denver Gorilla Run, raising funds to help the endangered Mountain Gorillas. I'll join him as Tilly Gorilly, Cagemate of the Year. More pictures later...

This is my Sister-in-Law Lisa and my favorite cat ever - Daisy. She is so beautiful and soft and loves to be around people. However, she will only sit on a lap that has the Kansas City Chiefs blanket on it. So cat-like - I admire her.

In here is my niece Molly in the Chaparral High School Marching Band, playing flute. We went to an all day competition where they advanced to state finals - first time ever for their school. Yay, Molly!
All the bands were great and the day was gorgeous.

Bill, Lisa and Molly's deck on Thursday - heaviest October snowfall Denver area has had in 12 years.

We need that to melt for Saturday's Gorilla Run!

Our campground, the beautiful Cherry Creek State Park. Good thing we got a good bike ride in the day before this snow. Our bikes are buried! Look at the shelf of snow hanging over the roof of the RV. Gregg had to climb up and shovel the roof! But we stay cozy and warm inside. We were the only campers on our loop with only a few others in other loops. It's been fun being a little isolated.

Colorado weather

Yesterday, chilly and clear. I just put my earflaps down and we did a 21 mile bike ride along the beautiful Cherry Creek

Here's our new neighbor today... Mr. Coyote. Actually the Mrs. was here too but I didn't get her in the picture with him.
We are expecting to get pretty well buried in the white stuff today. We've come to enjoy it, just holing up and reading a lot. It's beautiful out there. In two days it will be melting; beautiful weather is expected for our Denver Gorilla Run on Halloween.
