Here we go again

We pulled into Aspen around 10am and then we dropped the wine off at the restaurant and then headed over to drop our bags at Billie and Gregs. Before we knew it I had to be back for my work lunch with my buyers. I finished up, successfully, around 3 and then we hit a couple more stops that too were worthwhile.

Meanwhile Lori and the boys went tubbing (in an inner tube) down the river which meanders from the west end of town into town. Everyone ended up getting too much sun. Then at 6pm we all headed to a restaurant at the base of the gondola for dinner. We sat outside and with the cool mountain air and the girls all used blankets from the restaurant. They also moved some heaters over by our table. In all there were 8 of us including the kids. Speaking of the kids, they were playing out in the grass doing some karate kicks at each other and they both met mid air kicking their feet into each other. Jagger apparently hurt his foot and couldn’t put any pressure on it. This went on for the dinner and he just kept his foot up. When we left I had to carry him so now I was getting a little concerned. I gave him an Aleve when we made it home but he was hurting worse, so, at 10pm we were off to the Aspen Valley Hospital. After x-rays that were negative we ended up in a sort of new kind of cast that is wrapped on the outside with an ace bandage. This will stay on for a week (like the wrist) and then we’ll see where we’re at. We made it home by 11:45 (I made friends with the ER doc, Kimberly) who really took personal care of us and whisked us through the process. She’s been up here for 8 years and was a really nice girl.

So today I’m headed over to a Federal Reserve session at the Aspen Institute with Greg in 30 minutes and then we’ll hang out here until after lunch before we take off. Not sure if we’ll make it all the way home today or not. Tomorrow we get Mojo from the vet’s, (he’s doing great) as he gets to come home!

So that’s it, the excitement never stops! Hope you all are well, God Bless.
