Worked for Nelson Tree Service today

Worked for the tree service today. 2 jobs both in Highlands Ranch. Breath-taking views from high up on our 2nd job today!

Hot today. 85 degrees. Just Rich and I today. Like the old days.

Took a long walk this morning before work to look at the red sunrise portending rain.

After work went to Fireside. Chatted with Audrey the barista and book aficionado. Worked on my next column.

The pics show the red sunrise and then a  panorama of the mountains where even Longs Peak near Estes Park can be seen and its 75 miles away. You can see Green Mtn where I hiked religiously when I lived in Denver. Boulder can be seen too. It's an hour drive away.

First worked for Rich in February 2002 when I moved nto town. Tree service is hard work but gratifying. I was exhausted at the end of today.  Both Rich and I took several breaks today. He and I almost never took breaks especially 12 years ago. Didn't have to. Rich and I are really feeling the limits of age.

Tomorrow I am beginning my new job at the SAME Cafe( So All May Eat). Never worked in a restaurant before! Will take the train to Auraria then hike 2 miles to get there.
