Rocky Mountain Higher!

Hello from the road to Independent Pass... :)
Have you ever stood in the snow in the hot sun in a sun-dress?
(If you're male, you don't have to answer that...)


This was the view from my office yesterday morning as I typed to you...


This was the view this morning...


Yesterday in my post, I said, "I'm here atop the Rocky Mountains"...well...I guess I spoke too soon, I wasn't quite at the top yet!! :) Yesterday we drove up to Aspen and Snowmass from our inn in Leadville, on the way we were privileged to traverse "Independent Pass". Great place to be as a free and independent entrepreneur on Independence Day eh?!


I got to drive the Mustang all the way up the side of a mountain!! The road was narrow, there was no guard rail and Andrea was mighty nervous! I thought it was a blast - just like the movies! I always wondered what it would be like to drive a road like that! :) "Ask & It Is Given" Always, no exception!


We did finally make it to the top - over 12,000 feet at the summit! There we ran into a couple of our roommates! It was a great surprise and we found out they were the ones that made the slide mark just before us in the same snowbank we had just finished playing in!


The perfect spot to meditate...


Aspen is one of the most beautiful and affluent cities I've visited so far. The energy and atmosphere are welcoming and relaxing. I can see where living here would have me in a perpetual state of calm and bliss. The new homes being built on the mountain sides are breathtaking! Unfortunately I forgot my camera in the car while we were there... :( I'm pretty sure we'll go back for a visit on Monday after the seminar so I'll definitely get some pics then! Here's some fresh shots of this evening's office view! We've checked in to a gorgeous condo on the golf course, we're a ways away from the seminar site, the whole 3000 acres is booked solid as 1000's fly in for the event!


Tonight we're off to a free concert at the seminar site by Nelly Furtado's brother Tony! The seminar kicks off tomorrow morning bright and early! I can't wait!
