I just got back from our annual fall hike. This year our hike was to the Flint Lakes area in the Weminuche Wilderness. Participants this year were brother Jim, my nephew Bill, my bud Joe Fudge and me. It was another great hike, one that really stretched us. The fishing at Flint Lake was awesome and so was the scenery on the pass above Rock Lake.

Vicki, Veronica, Chase and I attended Bill and Evee’s wedding and Alexander’s baptism. I was honored that they asked me to be one of the godfathers. What a beautiful family they make and I look forward to what the future holds for all 3 of them. Here’s a short video of Alex “dancing” at the reception. What a awesome dude he is!
