weekend trip

Well we are back down from the mountian with some photos to boot:

It was great as always. This is the cabin that is owned by OMF and staffers can rent for a minimal fee + some clean up work when you leave. They have done a fabulous job of cleaning it up and redecorating since we were there last. We've got it around paul's birthday too, but the rest of the weekends are full up. It is a very popular place these days. Made me start thinking about decorating our place..whenever we get it. I came to terms that I will probably make a lot of mistakes when painting/decorating and that's ok. We also talked a bit about having space for a raised garden where we can do veggies and such. So much depends on what we buy, but it was fun to talk about it none the less.

Mostly we sat around and read, which is really common when we go up there. go for a walk, sit on a rock, listen to the birds, it's very peaceful. I always end up reading about WWII up there for some reason. Last time was Thread of Grace, this trip was Maus I&II. We also watched 2 parts of Band of Brothers. All of these are very good, but sometimes hard to watch/read.

The only part that sucks is getting down/up the driveway (dirt road with 8% grade) and having to drive in denver traffic on the way home.

Now I'm off to find something for dinner and maybe veg out a bit more before the week starts.
