Weather had already delayed Sam's flight back to school from Friday to Monday. And weather was threatening again to make getting him to the airport by 4am a little difficult. And Matt had a flight out Monday as well, albeit a bit later in the morning. In discussing options we realized that the
Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center had just opened and was offering discounts for locals. So what the heck. Matt, Sam, Nana, and Papa headed up there about noon on Sunday and spent the afternoon exploring. We had dinner at the Old Hickory Steakhouse - wow! Pretty impressive place. Also a bit pricey. All the photos are
here.
