39

sigh.

This means I only have one year to finish the things on my list of 'Things to do Before You're 40."
Guess I should start by making that list.
And I better hurry!

Bob took me and the gals up the hill for breakfast and then to try out my ghost meter at the Idaho Springs Cemetery...a really cool old mountain cemetery filled with people named Hugo, Alice, Bertie and Ethel...from the 1800's...not to mention the guys from the Colorado 1st and 2nd Cavalry Divisions (think Sand Creek Massacre).
It was all fine and interesting until we came across a family plot with the husband and wife team of "Robert and Annie" memorialized in stone.
Ooh. A little too close for comfort.

The meter didn't go off once which sort of makes sense...why would ghosts hang around with a bunch of dead people?! That would just be boring! So we headed up to Georgetown for a little shopping & a stop at the soda fountain (built in 1908) for hot cocoa and chocolate phosphates.

Spend your birthday in a graveyard.
Check.
Guess I can take that one off the list.
