Simon's Sleeping Positions

Summer 2008 in Steamboat Springs

The Brees Family spent 12 days in Steamboat Springs, CO in August. Anticipating dry cool weather (in contrast to the sultry Georgia summer), we stumbled upon the wettest, warmest summer in decades. Still, great times were had. We drove up to the Continential Divide and hiked several trails, rode the gondola and hike on the ski mountain, played disc golf, ate great food, slept more than necessary and generally had a relaxing time.
