Brownies

September 15, 2006 - Today is my birthday and my friend Lisa bought me lunch at the Missing Spoon Restaurant in Buena Vista. At one point, she seemed appalled when she had a closer look at my "George Costanza wallet." A friend in Kansas also sent me this wonderful array of brownies that were so good! :p)
Cuesta Rey Cigar Last week yet another friend (in Florida) sent me a package of top quality cigars, and he recommended a Cuesto Rey cigar for the festive occasion of smoking a cigar at Cottonwood Pass on my 35th birthday.

While at Cottonwood Pass, these two photos show there was some sleet/snow coming down! Only in Colorado!

On the west side of the Continental Divide, I snapped photos of the standard views looking at west that include the tundra pool. Clouds were completely enveloping the mountains, but notice just how "orangey" the foliage is. Autumn is definitely in full force at this altitude of 12,000 feet.
Cottonwood Pass Lisa is a really kind woman and good friend. Doesn't she look really sassy?! :)
Women's Cigar And look! Even her miniature cigar has a sassy, girlie, snooty look to it. :p)
New York Yankees Fan The cigar was nice.

Four photos I took as we drove back down on the Chaffee County (east) side of Cottonwood Pass.
