#17 - Playing in the Snow

Cottonwood Pass in Colorado

Yesterday, Don and I found quite a bit of snow when we climbed out of the car at Cottonwood Pass.

The wind was whipping as we climbed from 12,126 feet to 12,289. It was a short little hike, but we weren't dressed for a snow hike.

If I'd been 6, I would have whined the whole way up. Or maybe I would have asked Don to carry me. But I acted my age and made it high enough to enjoy a good view.

Time to Be 6!

Then it was time for a 6-year-old-snow-celebration. I took off my jacket and made a snow angel.

By the time we got down to the car, Don was acting like a 6 year old and threw a snowball at my head. All good fun!

Sixty
Celebrations

It's April 9, 2017. I'm celebrating my 60th by removing the zero from my age.

Party
Like A Six-Year-Old

I plan to spend this year pondering the good things I remember about my world, when I was 6. I remember those 12 months well, because my family moved from Iowa to NYC for just one year. My memories of 1963-64 are vivid ones.

My Plan

I'll celebrate this milestone birthday for 12 months. I'm going to conjure up the early 1960's and have 60 mini celebrations... in the spirit of my 6 year old self!
