Preview of Halloween and Meko!
After a two day delay due to the illness of Jamie G (sore throat) and her daughter Alex (slight fever), we travelled to Broomfield, CO. It was a great drive in the Tracker; the first leg on its way to its retirement in Mexico. On the way, we saw our friend Denny Murano who, we think, was also travelling to the Denver area to pick up his wife. He passed us up like we were standing still instead of zooming along at 60 mph in a 75 mph zone! We arrived in good shape- just before a storm blew in. It rained last night and we awoke to 3-4 inches of wet snow! The roads were wet but clear. Last night we played, played, and played with Alex and Aubrey. Alex is in the first grade. She had spelling words for homework and on her list was the word "subtraction". What kind of first grader can spell an eleven letter word like "subtraction? Well, Alex can. And, she is a great reader. Aubrey is a happy happy girl. Always on the move and just loves playing with Gaga and Papa. The new Galyon addition is Meko a Maltese mix 2 year old "puppy". He is the most inquisitive dog ever. He's always sniffing, chewing, or stealing whatever you set down-socks, toys, dessert, underwear, etc. We'll pack in as much fun as possible here before hitting the road on Saturday and driving to Amarillo. We'll spend the night and then it's on to Adrienne's house and her family.
We were sad, as always, to leave Cedaredge! Somehow, we seem to be so busy living there that we don't document our happiness there with pictures and blog entries. It isn't for a lack of feeling like it's magical place it is. But, when we're with kids and grandkids, and they're taking naps, we gotta do something! In Cedaredge, naps mean that
we sleep, not post blogs!
