This past summer, I started driving for a motorcoach tour company called Windstar. They have 55 coaches travelling throughout the US. They have five bases, four in Iowa and one in Lincoln, NE. I was tasked with taking the Dallas Center-Grimes Cross Country team to four days of high altitude training at the YMCA of the Rockies, outside Estes Park, CO. The trip was full of photo opportunities and great weather. We went to 12,000 feet. The kids did there thing and I walked (slowly) into the woods in several directions. Met some 150-member family gatherings that took over entire lodges. The lodge fed more than 1500 every meal and the food was super. No TV's meant this was a retreat in many ways. I rate it one of my greatest escapes.
