Park city, Utah to Snowmass, Colorado
Man! I wish there was snow on these mountains!
We are so sick of camping. The temperature difference between day and night is 40 degrees at least. We're either roasting or freezing, with comfortable temps between 7-8 pm and 7-8 am.
Major meltdowns yesterday after the adrenalin rush of Park City: chair lifts, alpine slides, zip lines. Congrats to the kids for doing it all solo. I was holding the dog. To make ian calm down Evelyn and I went into TJMaxx. New dog harness: check!
On the way to Colorafo we stopped at Dinosaur National Monument. Pretty cool. I can't halp thinking what might be under all the mountains they haven't excavated. The interagency pass is fantastic. We can go into the parks for a short visit and not feel like we need to get our money's worth out of it.
Lots of construction on the way here. We have a souvenir cracked windshield from a genuine Utah rock. Were doing Mad Libs like crazy. Had to buy another book. Kids have been great within screens in the car. Sleeping and listening to the radio. We all generally agree. On Sirius XM The Pulse.
Tomorrow noon checkout.

Park City
It's great to show the kids where I love to ski. Of course it looks completely different. We couldn't bring the dog on the lift so the kids are going up by themselves. I'm having a gin and tonic with the dog at the base if the town lift. Many great memories at this bar! Fondly and wistfully remembering many ski trips with Joe Rodden. Cheers to you and the way you gave us all more joie d'vivre!
Freezing night in the tent. Still missing the sleeping bags. Hot afternoons. Tomorrow we head to Snowmass, Colorado.
Recent mishaps: charger left in Amarillo, bathing suits left in Sedona, Baby chewed through his harness, still haven't washed the pee-scented dog bed, but laundry all dry from the Utah sun and breeze.
