Weekend in Aspen

Esme got the chance to prove that she has overcome carsickness this weekend.  Road trip to Aspen, Colorado for a AA youth hockey tournament for my son.  The 6-hour drive was absolutely gorgeous!  Amazing mountain formations that led to beautiful yellow trees that just popped against the brown background.

The weekend was a busy one for Esme.  Shuttle bus rides, settling under many tables during dinners, screaming parents during very competitive games, lots of dogs (Aspen is very dog-friendly), sitting by the jacuzzi, sleeping on tie-down/loose in hotel room, fun little walks around the hockey rinks while waiting for the games to start.  Esme was a pro.  She is ready to be an easy-going guide dog.

Esme, not afraid of heights!
Look at Esme's cute pawprints!

The weekend ended on a Rocky Mountain high note with my son's hockey team winning the tournament!
