The sun was shining much of the time, but the temperature was pretty cool and the wind was a little brisk. All in all, it was turning out to be a day that was not as bad as it had started out.
So Carole and I decided to go for a drive through the "high rent" district of Breckenridge . . . the area up the side of the mountain where the homes are big and the resorts are even bigger. We were in awe of the huge multi-million dollar homes. There are literally hundreds of them, many of which appear to not be occupied, so we assume they were only used during skiing or hiking season. I'll say it again, some people just have too much money!
I was also surprised that many huge home are still being built. Several giant lodges are also under construction to house even more skiers. There is certainly no recession in the construction industry here.
Ron and Holly returned to Breckenridge safely late in the day. Even though there was "Snow in the Mountains", they had not experienced any problem driving over Hoosier Pass.
