Colorado Fun




We spent the past week in Colorado.  Ouray -> Salida -> Denver -> Salida

It was incredible.  The leaves are starting to change color.  There was a light dusting of snow all over the mountains.  The best part was seeing old friends.


A raccoon got into our car and tore it apart - but that is what adventures are made of!


A few things that I've noticed on this trip.
1. My kid loves maps
2. We all love rocks
3. Pink eye spreads really easily
4. We need to figure out a way to help a kid who can't write journal
5. The wilderness must be explored!!

I've decided to take back up with Carol's Ten on Tuesday.  Her question for this week is 10 things I did this weekend.

1. I picked fruit from my trees.
2. I made peach, pear, ginger butter.
3. I took my kid to gymnastics.
4. I got over a cold (thank goodness).
5. I had a bbq with great friends.
6. I reorganized my jewelry.
7. I cleaned (who ever gets away with a weekend of not cleaning?)
8. I finished a book (it was so-so).
9. I've been cleaning out closets and thinking about project 333 again.
10. I finished a pair of mittens.



Next time I promise to have a few more photos!
