Tribute to a Frenchman

Back in August, our buddy UB (aka Uncle Bobby) came to visit us for about 6 days. We gave him a glimpse of our daily lives in Colorado Springs and brought him to Crested Butte for a few days as well (where he was called "SOOO East Coast" more than once-HAHA)! He came with us on some hikes, wine & dined us (even a Broadmoor $52 glass of Scotch for Matt, who is still talking about it), soaked in the hot springs, thought I was going to drive him off the edge of a Paradise Divide cliff, said hello to the giraffes at the zoo, and he even got to meet Mr. Hanky, the Christmas Poo! We miss him dearly and wish he lived closer. Lochlan still mentions Uncle Bobby almost everyday, so I know he has to come back and visit us someday, at least to appease Lochlan. At the end of the photos, there is a special message from Lochlan to UB.
Here are a ton of photos from his trip here.
