Memorial Day Week


It's almost a tradition, but not quite (we don't do it every year, but almost), after school ends on the Friday before Memorial Day we head to Colorado. So that's what we did. We got to Ft. Collins at about 9 pm and we were very tired. Both Luci and I had helped with the High School's graduation party and were out until 2, and then getting up at 6:30 to go to work. The week included some very fun activities. Some of us ran the Bolder Boulder.


Of course we all ran super well. Ok actually, my goal was to be the one millionth finisher in the history of the race. It didn't happen.

We also went to the Denver Zoo and the Denver Museum.





The dinosaurs of course were their favorite!

Horsetooth Mountain was also awaiting us, so we hiked it. Not all of us made it to the top, but we had fun flexing our muscles anyways.


The Rockies played the St. Louis Cardinals in Denver, unfortunately it was not the Dodgers, but you can't be picky.

Luci had never been to Rocky Mountain National Park, so we went there as well. Trail ridge road was not open all the way due to snow, but we went as far as we could. We also stopped in Estes Park for some fun.


Along with that, we also did fun little things, movies, BBQ, Casa Bonita, etc. It was a fun trip and good to see the parents and Sara, who was visiting from Maine.
