The Day Before the Final Day

It is the day before the final day and I never thought this day would come.  I could have never dreamed I would be rafting the wild Colorado River and that the whole experience would be better than sex.  I did a double Shoshone and it was exhilirating!  You might be wondering what a double Shoshone is, it is a series of whitewater rapids on a section of the Colorado River through the Glenwood Canyon and the biggest rapid is called the "Man Eater".  I survived and have pictures to prove how big the whitewater rapids were.  The "after sex" fun was when we pulled over to the side of the river and sat in some natural hot springs bubbling up and right out of the earth...It was AMAZING...better than sex I say but I don't think my husband would concur....

Sunday in Vail

Everyone should spend a Sunday in Vail, Colorado.  My sister picked us up from the airport on Saturday and we spent the night in Denver at the Aloft, what a swanky place!  Then we drove over the continental divide and stopped at Amy and Scott's place in Vail.  There I got the grand tour of her boys forts.  The whole "Peanut Butter Posse" was there to share all the details of the escape routes and secret rooms where the stratagies are planned. I did my thirty minutes in Vail observing the mountains, streams, beaver huts and wildlife.  What a wonderful way to spend my final days of my project....
