Her name was Irene n. Hudson. I sure would like to learn more about her past as she died when I was only 2 years old. My mother has passed and I have little information about grandma Irene's life in cripple creek. Does anybody know of any Hudsons from cripple creek.

She's been looking i often for the past several days, and all the love notes and sweet words are so good to see---I know they are a good boost in this stressful time.<br /><br />I SO enjoyed this Colorado post---We've been to the Denver area twice, way back in the seventies, so it's probably changed drastically. I wondered if EVERYBODY thought "This is the place I'd love to retire," for I've heard a lot of people say so.<br /><br />Looking forward to coming back to look my eyes full of these wonderful photos--we have a silly family story about Manitou Cave, regarding my sister's wedding.<br /><br />Happy Spring!<br /><br />rachelRachelDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11204947567574886675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-43178431582267898322017-03-25T19:20:54.105-04:002017-03-25T19:20:54.105-04:00More gold than CA or AK, now that is very interest...More gold than CA or AK, now that is very interesting.

The buildings are very pretty full of architectural details. And your trip out of town with that gorgeous scenery is breathtaking. They would make great wallpaper for the computer desktop!

I have been to Royal Gorge, but it was very windy that day and so we only looked down into the gorge and didn't go on the bridge. I'm looking forward to seeing your photos of your visit there. I'd love to visit Cripple Creek area, it looks so interesting. Have a nice week!
