Avon, CO

I haven't traveled much lately.  Just a trip to Denver in December for my son's wedding and now two week in the Colorado Mountains in the spring.  I have timeshares here.  The pollen was getting bad at home and my allergies were really kicking up so I decided to give them a rest by going where I have not lived long for them to bother me.  After a week and a half I have to say it is working great.  This is off season here.  Most of the ski resorts have closed down and there are not that many people staying here.  April is a mix of seasons.  There has been several days of snow.  I loved the hot tub in the snow.   Today it is very spring like.  You can still see snow on the ski runs but none is left down here in the valley.  I am still having to be careful with the altitude but am enjoying seeing a little of winter and spring.  Some on the same day.

This is the heated pool and one of the outdoor hot tubs taken from the balcony of my suite.  This is a winter day.

My favorite hot tub.  This is the one on the roof at the Sheraton Mountain Vista.  Another winter day.

One of the many bronze statues here in Avon.  This is a spring day.

Another spring day.  Look close and you can see a fly fisherman.  This is just a short walk from where I am staying.
