Thursday we wanted to give each family the opportunity to do whatever their family wanted to do. The weather wasn't all that accommodating with rain showers off and on but everyone got the chance to go off and do.
Tom, Ann and Great Grandma Helen drove up to Leadville where the "Elusive" Elwood Erastus McVey used to live a century earlier. We still couldn't find him but we did have a good time. Sorry, we didn't take any photos.
John and Piikea took off to the Copper Mountain Fun Park to see what they might find there...

For dinner that night Grandma and Grandpa kept the little ones and sent the couples and Great Grandma Helen to have dinner in town so that they could enjoy one another's company for just a short time without the worry of the little ones
We had a dinner of misc goodies like mac & cheese or grilled cheese sandwiches and left overs and afterwards Grandpa got to enjoy the little ones!
