Colorado Sunshine

As dawn broke Saturday morning the skies were grey, the temperature was 12 degrees, and a freezing drizzle mixed with snow made the roads as treacherous as an ice rink.  Three of our grandsons were spending the weekend with us and we had promised that we would take them fishing.  As we sat in our kitchen drinking coffee looking at the weather we wondered how we were going to break the news that it was just too cold to go.  When the youngest one got up I told him we probably wouldn't go and I asked him what else he wanted to do instead, he looked at me with his sad eyes and said "I want to go fishing grandpa".  So...we went.  As we drove up Ute Pass the sky began to clear and we drove right into a bright sunny day.  We had a wonderful time above the clouds and the fishing was great.
