Colorado Day One

So many years ago when I was in the Army, I lived at Ft Carson on the south end of Colorado Springs. I really liked living there, but when my time in the military was over, I didn't have the life experience to actually continue living there, even though I would have liked to. So I returned to Oklahoma. 4 years later, I returned with the Queen for our honeymoon, and she also loved it. But since our families were in Oklahoma, we dvid not pursue trying to live there. We wanted to go back for some time though and this year, we finally saved up the money to do it.

As I write this, we have been on the road foralmost 8 hours. The Queen is taking a turn at the wheel, and the princesses are in the back playing quietly. They are very good girls and always have been. They go crazy sometimes but they make us quite proud in public, and they even get complimented occasionally.

I figure since notating a vacatipon on Facebook is idiocy, a somewhat anonymous blog of my life is perfect. We are about to stop for lunch, after which we have approximately hours of driving left.

Most interesting thing to happen recently was the fear of not knowing whether that dump truck in the construction zone was going to want out on top of us or not. Fortunately, he just pulled over in the zone, but we were worried for a moment when he matching our speed.

More to follow. Stay tuned. I mean it this time. I can post anywhere from my phone. Makes it easier.
