Colorado

Today we are leaving to go on our skiing trip in Colorado. We will drive about 8 hours today and maybe another 6 tomorrow before we arrive, so it's going to be about a 14 hour drive I think. We will be there until Thursday! I am very excited! I don't know about you, but I enjoy long car rides. I like being in a car for a long time because that means that our destination is usually in a different state and the senery has changed. It also means a new place to explore and interesting things to do! For our long car ride I have downloaded several books from bookshare.org, I'm bringing a movie and I bought some new stuff from iTunes. What do you do to take up time on a long trip?
I've got to go for now and finish packing and getting ready. I will try to post sometime on our trip but I am not sure how much internet access I will have so I can't promise anything for sure. So have a blessed week!

  1. Sounds like a great vacation is on its way! My family isn't that big on skiing, so I've only been once, but it was SO much fun. I agree- it's great exploring new places, and a change of scenery is always nice.

    Usually on long car rides, we check out a pile of audiobooks from the library and listen to them all the way to our destination. If it's a good narrator and good plot, we'll sometimes sit in the car at our destination because we don't want to stop the story.

    Sometimes I'll watch movies, play games on my itouch, or I'll bring my laptop and work on homework/Don's puppy raising report. We'll usually stop at parks on the way for some outdoor time. The last trip we took, Don came with me, so I played tug with him on the way to Southern Ca.

    Have a great time! Can't wait to hear all about your trip.
