Day 2 of Mama Linda's visit was very nice. We had planned on going up to Estes Park and doing some shopping. Low and behold it was the weekend of the Scottish Highland Festival. Erik and I wanted to go up for that but neither of us knew when it was. There was no advertising of it that we heard of this year. So we go up there and noticed alot of plaid and Kilts. We were pleased to unexpectedly come across the Festival. So we parked in town and walked about 4 miles to the Fair Grounds. Erik bought a Chanter. (its what you learn to play the bagpipes with) After spending a few hours at the festival we were ready to hike back into town and take over the shops there. By the end of the day we figured we walked a good 12 miles. We went home and watched a few movies. Linda also brought the movie "Basic" with her. That movie threw us for a loop, it was one Erik couldn't figure out halfway through.
Day 3... We decided to take it easy Sunday. We were all sore from Saturday's little walk. We went to the Great Colorado Marketplace to do alittle more shopping. Then we went to Denver to eat at my favorite italian place. Cinzzetti's. Then we just came back home and watched more movies.
Mama Linda left at around 10pm There were many hugs and many more tears. Her flight home leaves this morning at 10:40. We will be praying that she returns home safely.
