October 8, 2017 North Conway, NH to Fort Collins, CO

We were up and on our way about 8:00 am today. Bernhard and Marlies dropped us off at the Eastern Slope Inn where we caught the Concord Coach Line bus back to Boston. It was raining, so we hung out on porch while we waited for our departure.They had some interesting yard art in front of the Inn. I guess you could call him a “pothead.”It rained all the way back to Boston. Coming into the city, we were very thankful we didn’t have to drive in this traffic!We got a few last minute looks at the city as we passed through the same downtown area we had stayed at when we arrived last week.We arrived at the airport about 12:45, so after checking in, we headed to the Priority Lounge to hang out until our flight at 5:15 pm. We were a bit late getting away and looked back from our plane to see all of the planes stacked up behind us ready for takeoff!A last look at Boston from the air.We got one last look at the coastline as turned inland toward Milwaukee on our way home.Our flight to Denver connected in Milwaukee and several people on the plane had the Green Bay against the Dallas Cowboys football game on their TVs. The game ended shortly before landing and the Packers pulled off the win in the last 11 seconds! Lots of cheering onboard!

We arrived back in Denver and the rain had started. By the time we got the shuttle to our car, it was blowing sideways and coming down quite hard. It turned to a rain/snow mix as we headed north on I-25, but Tobey got us home safely about midnight. It was a great trip and we have lots of new, great memories, but it is always good to be home again.
