On our way to Electra on Wednesday, we stopped in Glenwood Springs and had lunch with our friends Charlie and Gail at the Pullman restaurant, near the train station. A good lunch and a good visit.
Grand Junction was very hot, 103 degrees, but cool in the mountains. We did run into some rain as we got closer to Electra. The drive was uneventful, but of course slow on the Million Dollar highway.
We had a nice dinner with Eileen. Pat and Stacey arrived after we had gone to bed.
Thursday midday Pat and I took the boat out on the lake to do a little fishing. Richard caught a 17 inch rainbow trout, which we kept for dinner. Stacey later caught a 13 inch fish off the dock, so we had trout for dinner.
Friday was a quiet day. Pat and Stacey went into town for the day. Eileen went to practice for her trio. Richard fished a bit after dark, no luck.
Friday and Saturday Richard and Pat did some repairs on the boathouse stairs, as well as the boat, tightened up some loose steps, etc. Nothing big, but things that needed to be done.
Saturday was all about the concert. Eileen went to practice in the morning, and we headed over to the clubhouse for the 5 PM concert. The concert was very good, and well attended.
Sunday we left at 8:30 AM. Traffic was light, so we easily made it to Montrose by the 11 am mass. This was the Spanish mass, well attended. The priest seemed like he didn't want to be there, speaking indifferent Spanish.
We picked up excellent fruit and vegetables in Palisade. The rest of the ride home went smoothly, with rain and lighter than expected traffic.
