Colorado Tour Day 2 Denver
One of the fun things about the Colorado Tour is having Al and Joe, our Texas Tour bus drivers back in the saddle for us. While Al and Joe fueled up for the long haul to Denver today, the boys sang at two services in Trinity Lutheran Church. Again they were well received with standing ovations at both services (this is a church folks, how many standing ovations have you seen in a church?). Their appreciation was also expressed with lots of donations and cd sales. Having a promoter like Jamey Price didn't hurt, and Phil manages the cd table like a sales pro. Columbus sent us on our way with bag lunches, prayer and well wishes. Nebraska is flat and straight. Todd startled all of us by exclaiming "look a curve in the road!". Unfortunately no one had a camera ready to record the event. The next big excitement was when Joe parallel parked one of our 40 foot buses at a rest area with 4 feet to spare on each end. Very impressive, that's why we hire drivers instead of letting Mark and Todd drive. Next up, a great dinner in Sterling, CO. Mexican, in an old converted church, wonderful chips, salsa, burritos and enchiladas. The boys thanked the chef and servers with a wonderful rendition of Loch Lomond, bringing a tear to more than one eye. We were off to Denver with black clouds on the horizon that soon turned to hail and rain. The storm slowed us down a little but the sun came out with a rainbow and a view of the Rocky Mountains to welcome us to Denver and our next adventure.
