Camping

This past weekend we FINALLY got to explore Colorado a little. We have lived here for a year and half and really haven't seen much of the state. This is still more or less the case, but at least this past weekend we finally got to go camping. We met some friends of ours from Austin in Buena Vista and had a great time. If nothing else, it was a nice chance to get away for the weekend and not think about all the things that NEED to be done. Quin had a great time, as did Talisker. I can officially say that Quin loves to camp!

There is something about sleeping in our trailer that Quin loves. Two weeks ago we had to drive out to Carson City last minute and decided to bring the trailer with us (a portable bathroom is a good idea when 6 1/2 months pregnant). Ever since then, Quin can't stop talking about the trailer. Everything from "Can I go play in the trailer?" to "Can I sleep in the trailer tonight?" has been asked. When we do sleep in the trailer, he actually does a great job! We weren't sure how well he would sleep, considering it's a new place where his bed is separated from ours only by a curtain, but he sleeps in there just as well as he does at home.

Buena Vista isn't much of a town, but it is beautiful. It was great for Quin to see his old friend Sagan, and for us to see Mike and Alison. They ventured to Colorado for Mike to participate in the Transrockies race, a crazy run from Buena Vista to Beaver Creek that lasts six days.

Now that we are home, Quin has enthusiastically been asking "When we are going camping again". Since he excited to go again, I will make it happen soon! I am so happy that Quin loves to camp!
