Searching through an old family album and found these. My Dad's parents and sister were out from Denver for my parents' wedding. Thought you might enjoy these.

Re: November 1968
Very cool, is that a star on top of the Matterhorn? November 68, the year and month I was born.Stalking is when two people go for a long romantic walk together but only one of them knows about it.

Re: November 1968
AWESOME!! Now I'm gonna have to dig through my parent's old DL pics.
I love that they sold REAL flowers on Main Street back then. Too bad they don't do that anymore....or am I missing something?Comment

The back of the pics have a handwritten note from my Mom that the trip was November 21. Funny how DL didn't have a ton of Christmas decorations everywhere back then. Not that I mind todays decor, believe me!Comment

Re: November 1968
I remember that beautiful star. They had it atop the Matterhorn only during the Christmas season. It was illuminated at night, but I can't remember it it had lights in it, on it or just lights pointed at it. According to the 2nd photo it was 24 feet across. I wonder whatever happened to it. They should use it if they still have it.
