Ben (Stuhl) and I got a late start on Saturday morning and decided to stop at the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, on our way up to Keystone, where the Lab and their SOs were finishing up their ski runs and starting in on the cases upon cases of beer that everyone had the wonderful forethought to bring.
