ON THE BACK BURNER

I am betting ready for a trip  to Colorado. I will meet my Colorado daughter in Denver,drive to her new house near SteamBoat,visit with her and her husband, then the two of us  drive to Estes Park and spend a few days in the Rocky Mountains. I am so excited. Because I am obsessed with anything travel, I just bought a new back pack, a new fanny pack and a compass.  I probably don't need the back pack or the fanny pack, but I definitely need the compass. I once took a class in using a compass. I don't think that I passed. I go by landmarks. I can tell where I have been by seeing a house or a store. That is not much help in the woods. The daughter that I will be with, has my same problem. The two of us together could be a catastrophe in navigation. I plan to carry my cell phone and my compass in my new fanny pack. I hope  that the trees on the hiking path are still marked with an orange dot for going and a yellow dot for getting back to the trail head. On second thought, I am going to sign us up for a group hike, with a hike master. I feel better about this already.
