We have arrived in Wisconsin!










We finished off our time in Colorado by going to:
-Indian Cliff Dwellings of Mesa Verde
-Chuck Wagon Dinner with Blue Grass Band performance
-self-guided tour of Silverton, numerous mines and a Ghost Town
We woke up early Saturday morning and began our journey to Wisconsin. We are staying with my sister's family and enjoying every minute.

One Week Down, Three to Go!

We are having a wonderful time on our road trip. Our first stop was Utah where we spent Thurs. through Mon. morning. Upon arriving in Bryce Canyon, Providence stated, "Mom, is this where Mary laid?" I didn't understand what she was talking about so I probed her further. She said, "You know, where Mary laid God?" Dallas sarcastically responded, "No, Prov, God was laid in Bethlehem!" You have to remember they are around chickens alot and apparently think babies are laid. Anyways, we saw many beautiful sites in Utah and then headed to Ourey, Colorado. I have never been one to take many pictures of scenery, but I have to say that Ourey, Colorado is the most beautiful place I have ever been too. It resembles Switzerland. We are so thankful for our jeep because it has allowed us to see things off the normal trail that we wouldn't be able too without four wheel drive. We have hiked, fished, swam, gone on a mine tour, traveled many trails in our jeep and look forward to the many more activities that we will be doing in the next three weeks. If you look closely, you will notice that Selah gave herself a "bang cut" when we were driving to Colorado. I was sitting up front and looked back and saw scissors on the motor home table and a chunk of hair lying next to it. Lovely!!! I will try to post when I can. Internet access is inconsistent at these campgrounds!
