Aug 24-25 - Vetting the Boat

Ah yes, sports car fans. The boat was alive with Corvettes both old and new. And, fortunately for Lizzy and I, some good friends were among 'em. While we ran with the Lone Star BMW Motorcycle Riders from 2011-2016, we were fortunate to form many lasting friendships. Mark and Lea and Chris and Paula are two such couples we have traveled with on several occasions. Now they are members of the Lone Star Corvette Club in Texas. Several Vette clubs combined and staged a huge rally right outside our front door here on Yampa Street in Steamboat.

Saturdays usually feature the Steamboat Farmers Market here on Yampa. Today the scene was a bit different outside our front door.

Here's Mark's Ride

And Here's Chris'

Of course both couples drove from DFW to Colorado spending time in Boulder and riding through Rocky Mount NP. Next they found themselves in Steamboat's Grand Lodge out on the ski hill. But they soon found their way into beautiful downtown Steamboat where Lizzy and I gave them the local tour of the best happy hour spots around. "E3", just across the street was their favorite. We enjoyed a beautiful Colorado evening spinning yarns and catching up!

One good story deserves another...keep 'em comin'

You shoot me...and...I'll shoot you back! Photo duel...

We hope Chris, Paula, Mark and Lea had as much fun as we did. We hope they'll return soon and often. In the mean time, we'd better start searching for our location for next year. Here's a nice parting shot of our group along side the Yampa River across the street from our condo digs.

Stay tuned for more fun from "The Boat." In fact, I think we'll turn in early and go moose hunting in the morning. We just love meeses to pieces.
