Leadville

Friday night in Leadville, Colorado. Elevation 10,152 feet. Temperature at 8:30 48 degrees. Forecast low 35.

Staying at the Delaware Hotel, built in 1886. Plumbing and electrical updated since then. Second floor room; no elevator. Fourth time I climbed the stairs, I felt the altitude.

Leadville was once the largest city between St. Louis and San Francisco.

Had breakfast for dinner; eggs, hash browns, sourdough toast. And a beer.

Lunch today was in Taos. Fantastic scenery all day.

Z enjoying the trip too.
