About an hour ago, I got back from a family vacation to Colorado. One of my mom’s brothers lives in (infamous) Littleton, CO and we went out there to visit them. My mom’s other brother, who lives in Tempe, AZ also went to Colorado so we kinda had a family reunion. Despite the long drive out there, we had a really great time. I’ve only been to Colorado once, but that was when I was a baby so…. The drive there and back wasn’t too bad – especially since I was able to drive. I drove half of the way there and about a third of the way back. While we were in Colorado, we did quite a few different things. We went hiking a few of the days – one of those days, we went to see St. Mary’s Glacier. The weather was really great and it was awesome hiking on snow-capped mountains wearing shorts and t-shirts. We also hiked to a forest fire lookout tower. There we could see all around Pike National Forest (I think that’s the name of it), and we could see Pike’s Peak. We had a lot of time to relax too. We played a lot of games, sat around outside and talked, went to a Colorado Rockies (baseball) game, etc. It was a really great vacation and I hope I can go back soon!
