Made it to the lake!

We left yesterday at 3:38 a.m. and rolled into the condo at 4:30 yesterday afternoon. A long day that went surprisingly quick.

Sunrise over eastern Colorado:

Sleeping (and just waking up) girls:

Welcome to Kansas at 80 mph:

Playing cards:

Reading books:

Off I-70 and south on highway 87, my favorite part of the drive:

I'd love to live along this road and maybe own a barn:

Taking pictures out the window:

Mom waited for us to arrive so she and I could go to the Walmart together to grocery shop. We loaded all the groceries in the back and she said, "You have your camera?"

You bet. We take this picture every year:

We spent today reading, fishing, laying around the pool, doing a 1000-piece puzzle, eating popsicles, going out for custard, and generally eating. It was a good day!

Enjoy! I've always wanted to do a big puzzle on a vacation. Maybe you've inspired me to do just that!

Sounds awesome! By the way, what are some things you must have on you when you travel on the plane? Do you also carry a travel journal?

Sounds wonderful - and looks like it too. I've never been any farther west than Texas - so I would love to see these parts of the county one day. I've been from Louisiana to Michigan, and lots to the east of that, but only west once to Texas.
