Last week I had the opportunity to attend the Diabetes in Youth conference that was sponsored by the Barbara Davis Center. It was located in the mountains at Keystone, Colorado. The speakers were excellent, the topics very timely and the opportunity to network with other Pediatric Diabetes Educators was a benefit. It was interesting to get view points from professionals from around the world.

John went with me and he spent the time hiking, kayaking, and investigating old mine sites and such. Then we had 2 days of sight seeing, hiking, and mountain train riding. We took an interesting tour of an old silver mind. The mountains certainly showed off the majesty of God. In contrast it was very sad to see that some of the quaint historic cities that we had visited 30 years ago have been taken over by casinos and are fast becoming ghost towns.
