We wrapped up our month-long skiing adventure in Park City, Utah. It is hard to compare Park City to Keystone, Breckenridge, Beaver Creek, and Vail because we ended our ski season here. Our ski legs were starting to get worn out, the temperatures were rising, and the snow was melting. Park City is a big mountain. There are a lot…
We spent two weeks in Utah. We spent one day exploring Antelope State Island Park. It is a beautiful state park with hiking, beaches, a ranch, breathtaking scenery, and buffaloes. It can easily be a full-day activity. It costs $15 per vehicle to enter the park. Once in the park, there are several trailheads of varying lengths for hiking, a…
Last week we headed to Denver to pick up our car. A shuttle bus hit our car while we were in Breckenridge. We had to get a rental car for two weeks while it was being fixed. Dealing with that was difficult, but Michael did a great job of figuring it all out. We are happy to have our car…
We spent this past week skiing in Vail, Colorado. Vail has a special meaning to me because my family took annual ski trips here since I was 12 years old. I have wonderful memories from those ski vacations. Dave was our ski instructor every year. We used to end the ski day at a bar at the bottom of the…
We spent our third week of skiing in Beaver Creek. It is hard to compare Keystone, Breckenridge, and Beaver Creek. Keystone seems more family-oriented. It is just the ski-slopes, not tons of shops, restaurants, and bars right around the slopes We were just getting our ski legs when we were there, so we didn’t explore as much of the mountain…
We spent the week skiing in Breckenridge and we loved it. We all got our ski legs under us. By the end of the week, we were all skiing blues and blacks. The crowds were not bad. The weather was perfect. Henry still pizzas straight down the mountain, but one day he will start turning. Our place in Breckenridge was…
We spent the week in Dillon, CO in a Best Western. We were in a standard hotel room with two double beds. Lucas and Henry had school. Michael and I had to work. It was challenging when we had conference calls, or I had to get up at 6 a.m. for a meeting that started at 8 a.m. eastern time.…
We are on the move again. Twenty-five hours, 10 states, and over 1500 miles of driving to get out to Colorado Springs. It has been a long three days, but our travels were smooth. We had great weather and no traffic. The boys had school Thursday and Friday and they were able to do it in the car using our…
We are winding up our time in North Carolina. The past six months have been a lot of things: Emotional, stable, relaxing, stressful, busy, and fun. Getting to spend so much time with my dad and a lot of my family was great. It was sad because we lost Lois. It was nice to be in one place for a…
This time last year we were traveling across Costa Rica at the start of our travel journey in Central America. How are things a year later? The kids’ hair is a lot longer. We like letting Lucas and Henry explore their own style. Many people do not like their long hair, but if they like it, we support them. Self-expression…
