Laid back Halloween here at Les and Kathy's, their grandson, Jaxen 16mo, came over as James Bond and Les took him around to the neighbors where he was quite a success. Earlier today Les and I checked out the new Orvis shop here and a local fly shop, so we have new stuff to take to the stream Tues. Tomorrow Teri and I go back to Evergreen for the afternoon. Fall is treating the Denver area well, it was over 70 today clear and calm.
Here is some shots of the drive from Albuquerque to Pueblo via Angel Fire.

Antelope on the wrong side of the fence didn't seem to realize how easily they could jump the fence. |
We stopped at the Vietnam memorial at Angel Fire. It was the site of the beginning of a documentary film that featured Jim Coleman and the family of a friend of ours from our unit in Vietnam who died shortly after I left. The film is titled "In The Shadow of The Blade" and is quite stirring. They restored a Huey and flew it around the country to let survivors of KIA vets ride in it to experience a common link all Vietnam vets had. The unique WOP WOP of that rotor blade. Here's a link to the web site about the movie.
