Terry and Marilyn Brandt invited us to join them and their children, Sam and Haley, at their condo in Breckenridge last weekend, and we were packing our bags before we even finished reading the invitation. For me, it was an afternoon of skiing that made me wonder why I ever left Colorado.
We all enjoyed sledding. It snowed a little Saturday night and was warm enough on Sunday to melt the icy patches but not turn the slopes to mush.

Terry is an excellent skier and knows Breck intimately; he took Paul out for a day of intense skiing that exhausted both of them on Saturday.

Walt Whitman's poem "A Noiseless Patient Spider" is the inspiration for the title of this blog, which is an attempt to remain connected to the people who have been part of my life.
