Van Beek: Offseason joys and woes
Van Beek: Offseason joys and woes
Via the Vail Daily
Sherriff James Van Beek
This time of year is filled with planned relaxation, but also excitement. We finally have time to spend with family and friends, escapes out of town, storing our winter toys, and bringing out the big guns of entertainment: the summer collection.
Four-wheeling, mountain biking, water rafting, camping gear, golf courses, trips to the lake with the motorboat, shopping around for a new BBQ grill, horseback riding, fishing, day hikes, hot-air ballooning, or simply sitting on the deck enjoying your favorite drink as you watch the sunset … the list of adventures and fun are endless. One of our most treasured springtime diversions is travel.
Among those things are trips to see out-of-town friends and those must-see destinations. These trips often take us away for weeks at a time. As we leave our Rocky Mountain bubble, remember to keep everything secure.
