Day 101 – 9/2/11 McClure CG to Redstone
Distance = 8 Miles; People Met = 16
Wow! Redstone, Colorado is a wonderful town! But rather than me writing about it why don’t you listen to one of the leading figures of the town, Pastor Bruce Gledhill. Included in the slides are Bruce’s wife Connie, son Kent, daughter-in-law Melissa, and several grandkids. The people who had tables with us at the small farmer’s market were Chris and Karen, and Alesia. Also featured are Janice (caterer who brought us her leftovers), Bill and Debbie (volunteers to clean the church building where we stayed); and Penny and Bob (who started the farmers market in back of their story). I’m sure you will be as impressed with Redstone as I am. If an error occurs press the YouTube button on the video.
