Finally

Finally got the washer and dryer. What a long day!

Here is the shortened long story - may want to ignore :-)
9:45-11:45 - original arrival time
10:30 - received call stating the truck had to go in the shop and were going to be 2 hrs late on schedules ~ so I thought they would arrive between 1&2
2:40 - received call that they just got a truck and my new window of time was 4-7pm

I was NOT happy. I called the manager and ended up saying I wanted compensated for the extra time I had to take off work to wait on them. Plus I couldn't leave the house thinking they were going to show up. I think I pissed them all off since they arrived at exactly 7pm.

But.... we got our washer and dryer and the dryer door actually opens ALL the way!

My Morning View

I was leaving for work Tuesday morning and glanced down toward Waneka Lake. What a joy to see a hot air balloon. I drove closer and was able to see it hovering just above the lake.

Toddler Bed

Well, we decided to make Sydney's crib into her toddler bed. She never did try to climb out of thank goodness!


Hmmm, what tool do I need to do this?

"I'm workin' it." (Yes, she did keep saying that!)


Baby Bird

The baby birds right outside of Sydney's school.

Best Buds

South Fork - A Little of This & A Little of That

Sydney and her new friends.

Sydney loved playing outside in the dirt!

The buds


Sydney's favorite person of the whole weekend...


On the way home - what a fun and busy weekend!

South Fork - Wolf Pass

A bit chilly!


What is everyone looking at???

It's a deer!

The Continental Divide

South Fork - Train Ride

Denver & Rio Grande Railroad
The Wagon Wheel Gap Route along the Upper Rio Grande River and Palisades

The original Denver & Rio Grande Railroad dates back to 1883.




An original homestead

What a view!



The original train depot. The current owner redid a caboose and uses it a bunk house for their grandkids. He is currently working on redoing another caboose for the city.

End of the road, or should I say tracks :-)
