Highlights include photos from my cruise through the Panama Canal which was quite the experience. Started in Fort Lauderdale and ended in San Diego. Come summer a brief visit to Burlington, Vermont and a sad return to Colorado Springs for my uncle's funeral. In November my aunt from Maine came to visit and we went to Saint Augustine and ended the visit with a trip to Cape Canaveral to watch a SpaceX rocket launch.

Happy Easter 2018
