Max and I just returned from a trip to see Son #3 and his family. He had been stationed in Seoul, South Korea and while he returned quite awhile back, we hadn't seen him except for a quick weekend in Chicago. We had a fantastic time. Two of my of my other sons had told me, "Mom if you ever go to Colorado, you won't ever want to leave". I knew it would be true. We loved it! We went up Pikes Peak, saw the Garden of the Gods, the Air Force Academy Chapel. There are deer in everybody's yards, prairie dogs, hawks, and of course bears, which we didn't get to see, but the kids have so many pictures of them just wandering thru their yard. We took our little granddaughter to a bowling alley (her idea!) the Children's Museum and as many parks as we could. There weren't any real crowds anywhere but the museum, so that was nice. We even did a little shopping...Max brought me these ridiculous, but highly appropriate socks.
