My last day here was lovely. We went to Red Rocks Amphitheater. It was so amazing. The air is so thin though, it’s amazing how winded I got walking up there. It’s open to the public until 2:30 each day, then they close it to prepare for the concert that will take place in the evening.
It’s this ginormous red rock formation that juts out from the mountain. In the center they created an amphitheater. The view is amazing. These are some pics I took.
We came back to the house for a little while, then went for a walk in a park near here. The parks are beautiful, and so well maintained. It was nice to spend time with him, just one on one.
I’m trying not to get too far ahead of myself, and not think about tomorrow. Son was trying to get a friend to go with us, so he wouldn’t be alone on the ride back. But I doubt it will happen, we’re leaving about 8:15 for the airport. I’m biting my lip trying not to cry as I type this. Gonna be hard.
I will be glad to get home though, all things considered. I miss my own bed, I miss my morning routine, and I have things that need doing. But it’s gonna be so weird without my son in the basement. Then move, drive to Florida, set up a new house.
I just want it to be done, at the moment. I’m getting tired of the transition. Especially this one.
Love and light.

Well its all so tough, but I guess the time comes for every mom. Is there a post you could link for me to read as I feel out of the loop, i.e. why son has moved to Colorado in particular? How come he has friends there, did he study there already, and is returning?
I’m glad you are flying home, it might be difficult to drive while preoccupied by the emotional side of things – hugs for u 🙂 XX
He’s moving here because I decided to move to Florida. He didn’t want to go there, too many old folks and none of his friends. He has a bunch of friends who have already moved to Colorado, and the economy is booming, full of young people, tons of things to do like bike paths and hiking paths, skiing. It’s the healthiest state in The country. Connecticut is way too expensive to live in. So it was a good choice for him. But I will miss him. So far so good tho, I’m at the airport. We got lost on the way here, lol. Good distraction. 😊
Oh, I see! It does sound tempting, not for me tho, I’m too old to go skiing and bungee jumping and so on, but I do like mountains and hiking! I know of a hippie styled English group called “Ozric Tentacles” moved to Colorado! 🙂
Yes. Full of old hippies like me lol.
