The Trip
After leaving our jobs, giving our parents a few more gray hairs, and selling/storing all of our personal belongings, we are hopping into a 2002 Jeep Wrangler with 131,000 miles on it and hitting the road! Taking the southern route, we will be stopping & staying with friends/family along the way, final destination: Northwestern CO where we will stay & work for the winter season... From there, nobody knows!

Vacation
The last 2 days are pretty typical vacation: woke up when we felt like it, lounged around in our pj's until we felt like getting dressed, and pretty much did nothing, and enjoyed every minute of it! last night we visited the hot tub with a few bottles of wine, and even tho Laura couldn't go in all the way (still being over-protective of my ink!), she was still feeling the full effects of the wine enhanced by the heat... evident when she walked face-first into the sliding glass door! -I swear it was Aunt Libby's immaculate housekeeping because that glass is so clear I thought the door was still open!! But despite the slight headaches this morning we both woke up at 7am to watch Uncle Jimmy feed his flock of pigeons; they typically sit on the power lines waiting for him to emerge from the garage with a bucket of bird seed & whatever organic matter may have been left over from the previous day. However, this morning they were circling nervously, clearly weighing the benefits of a free meal against the earlier hawk sighting... Eventually, thru the gentle coaxing by Uncle Jimmy, his "gals" settled down and went to work on the lawn surrounding him- we counted about 50 pigeons before a second flock joined in... Needless to say it was quite a sight! After the morning feeding we promptly returned to bed (I know none of our followers are surprised), and got up again around 10, but to our own credit, upon waking, we quickly got dressed and went for a quick morning jog/walk around the block (approx 1 mile)! The rest of the day was spent lounging by the pool, sweating profusely, and watching lifetime movies in the evening... yeah, its a tough life out here 'on the road'... ;-)
