2008 Spring/Summer Tour - Day 106

We went over to Karen's again this morning and the girls had a bath, then we all went over to see the Broadmoor Hotel, which is where Andreas works as the chef in one of the restaurants. The Broadmoor is one of the few five-star/five-diamond resorts in the country, and rooms there begin at something like $500 a night. (I don't think we'll be staying there any time soon.) It's a really nice place, and we enjoyed having a tour of the different buildings and grounds, and Andreas took a few minutes out of his busy lunch schedule to meet us and take some pictures.

We wanted to go out to lunch together somewhere, and probably couldn't afford a packet of crackers at the Broadmoor, so we decided to go to Red Robin, which was quite good. Afterwards, we went back to Karen's and had some yummy smoothies and played some foosball (Peter destroyed me 10-4) and then said goodbye, as Karen had to get back to work at the hospital tonight. It was so great to see Karen and her family and my folks again, and I really hope we'll all be able to get together more often in the coming years.

We went back to the RV park and did some computer stuff and had some dinner, then went to bed.

Now where did we park again??

We keep driving by this sign near the RV park and wondering, what's the deal with the quotation marks around "unauthorized"?? "It's okay... I can dump things here, because I'm... (finger quotes) authorized."
