Decided to go up to Marble which still has huge piles of snow but the roads are clear. Interesting to learn via the Nav system that Marble is 500 ft lower than Aspen. I would have guessed 1000 ft higher in elevation.

Then we went to the top of McClure Pass. Some of the rocks on the road are as big as my head (and that's big ). We did not hit anything.

We left about 11:30 AM and got home at 5 PM. Washed the car.

We now have 1000 miles on the S, halfway thru the break-in period. Easy to see the revs limit at 4200 as the 4 grand mark is on the top of the tach. Can hardly wait until we can take her to the reline.

Today it is snowing and snowing pretty hard. What a difference a day makes. (tomorrow looks like a ski day).

Oh the Aspen life! I know who to look up when I someday make my way out there. Phil I could come put the extra break in miles on it for you then she'll be ready for some tail spin'in high revs!
