Road Trip – The Trappes are trippin’.

We arrived in Colorado and enjoyed the Chick-fil-A in Grand Junction, which is a neat mountain biking town near the border of Utah.  We went to the Colorado National Monument and Todd did some bouldering.  Then, we were completely blessed with a treat in Breckenridge.  We were able to ski and stay at no cost to us.  It was a HUGE gift to us.  We have savored the last few days in a condo with a fireplace and an accessible kitchen and bathroom.  AND, I don’t hate skiing at all.  Not that I ever thought I did hate it since learning how a little bit last Christmas, but I really enjoyed my time on the slopes.  I picked up some speed, increased the length of my runs, and learned how to tote all of my stuff.  It was a very large improvement.  Since I didn’t feel like a putz the whole time, I had a lot of fun!  We have had quite a bit of snow since our arrival.  I’ve been cooking and we’ve been eating the things we cannot prepare on the road.  So much has been good and relaxing about this week.

We’ve also made it! (on Monday) to our one year wedding anniversary.  I honestly feel like that is something both to be proud of and thankful for….worthy of celebration!!!
