Crested Butte, Colorado - 2004.   I'm over a month late getting these pictures posted.  Going on vacation doesn't make all your work go away - it just postpones it until you get back.  ...but no excuses - here we go.

We arrived just in time for the Mardi Gras parade.  Crested Butte is a small town, but they must have had over a thousand people lining the streets.  It was really neat, and Lauren loved it.

Check out this crazy dude!  It's hard to see from these pictures, but he is skiing down a ramp that is built on the back of a van, and he jumps over the flames - onto the trailer, and hops off the back. Too funny!

Am I seeing double?

Ahhhh, the top of Paradise lift.   Awesome!

It's snowing!

It was a great vacation - and I'm already looking forward to doing it again next year.
