Today's Flickr photo with the most hits: a real throwback. Here's the main street of Leadville, CO. Peter and I stayed here when we drove from Chicago to San Francisco, way back in 2008. I revisited with Adam (hiking in Colorado) in September, 2022.

There is no greater joy than to see your children supporting and loving each other.

Mell called me in July and asked if there was anyway I could go to Leadville. She said Jonny keeps saying, ¨I wish mom could be at the race.¨So I told her I would ask our area President, and he said yes.

Mel didn't tell anyone that I ws coming. I arrived after Jonny had left for the race, my plane was delayed and poor <mel had to pic me up at the airport at 1:00 am. We drove to Leadville after the kids were out of school. They are such sweet kids! When we arrived in Leadville we drove close to where the Airbnb. Mel had me duck down so no-one would see me. Jonny was outside, and he came running up and gave me a hug. We then walked to the house, and Stephen said he saw me and thought, ¨Oh there's mom.¨ By then I was in the house and as I walked in Hillary screamed, and Paul and Stephen both gave me big hugs. It felt so nice to be so welcomed. We all went to bed early because the bikers were leaving getting up at 4:00 am.

I took some pictures before the race began.

We watched them take off and jumped in the car to meet them at their first stop.

Stephen made it into the finsh line with 15 seconds to spare, we were all yelling for him and so happy that he made it under 9 hours.

Tracy and I bought silver bicycle bracelets from Taxco for me to give to them when they finished the race. What an amazing experience it was to be with my boys.
