Today was a relaxing day. We woke late, took showers late, and left for a dinner date at 5:00. Scott works with a nice guy, Ron, who lives in the mountains near Morrison, CO. He doesn’t just live in the mountains; he lives in seclusion. He and his wife, Candy, smoked ribs, and their neighbors smoked a brisket. Candy made a delicious rhubarb cake from the plant she grew in their side yard. The leaves are poisonous, but the stems are tangy, almost like cherries. 

Their house has a gorgeous porch, and the weather was perfect. I cannot imagine living that far away from stores! But, I think I would love it. The dinner was tasty, the wine was awesome, and the company was perfect. 

Tomorrow, we head to Rocky Mountain National Park. 

On a side note, Samuel is having problems with his right eye again. He has seen an ophthalmologist at Texas Children’s, and the doctor told us to come back if we noticed any changes. He keeps closing that eye a lot when he is focusing on various things. I am thinking that he may need glasses, as his MRI came back clear last time.  Praying that is all he needs.
