I left Leadville and decided to take the scenic route, so I headed south out of town on 24 to 82 west (yes, back to Twin Lakes), on up through Aspen, and on to Glenwood Springs, where I met Chris, a college classmate who was unable to make it to the reunion.
We met at the Glenwood Canyon Brewing Company, and shared a pitcher of their home-brew root beer (and I might have had some appetizers). Chris warned me that while the flavor of the rootbeer would be good, it would not be well-carbonated.
From there I headed off to the hotel (somewhere like Richfield or Joseph. Probably not Elsinore, as I would have remembered that, as I like the movie “Strange Brew”.)
