Kansas to Colorado...

We had our wedding on that Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning we packed up our truck and left for Colorado. Well...we really didn't get on the road until about 5 pm. After you make a social stop, grocery stop, empty the ice out of the coolers, refill coolers, stop by a book store for book on tape...time gets eaten. So we drove...and drove...and drove. We made it to Hays where we stopped for the night. The next morning we got on the road by noon and continued towards Colorado Springs. Stopped at an awesome old time soda shop along the way.

Stop at the Art Museum to see legos and old friends

My view the entire trip....minus the semi...

Stopping to take pretty pictures of energy windmills

Leaving our Hays motel the next morning

Changing out the ice in the coolers

Stop at an old fashioned soda fountain...

Peter brushing his teeth...nobody wants to know how many days it had been since the last brushing...especially me...

Favorite snack of the trip...crabby patties on a stick :)

FINALLY!!!!

We thought we'd NEVER leave...
