Happy New Year

December is over! I can't believe it. We had lots of fun. We went to the dinner theater with the kids and saw White Christmas on the fifth. On the 19th we went to Cripple Creek lost $20 each in 30 minutes in the slot machines. The Imperial Hotel is the preferred place for us to stay, when we go there. Built in 1880's it is terribly haunted. Cripple Creek is considered the most haunted place in the United States by the way. We had supper of crab legs at the wonderful restaurant in the hotel. The Butte Opera House was our next destination where Miracle on Bennett Street was the holiday live theater offering. The play is a variation of Miracle on 34th Street as Bennet being the main street of Cripple Creek. In the middle of the night, I heard Crazy Alice, the resident ghost, picking up Lynn's watch on the dresser and dropping it back down. The next morning, we met Robben in Manitou to eat at our favorite Mexican place, the Loop and had the best Margaritas. Robben came to baby sit Kimo while we were in Cripple Creek, because of his surgery. She stayed the whole weekend and it was good to see her. I'll post pictures of Christmas later and tell you about the celebration.
