One Province and Six States later I finally arrive in Colorado

Greetings from the Rockies!!!

My new room mate Heidi was gracious enough to help me set up my first blog. Figured this would be easier then sending out the group emails I promised.....which we all know I no intention of doing in the first place. Now this won't allow you to know what it feels like to sit in a Tiburon for 2 and a half days and not go insane, but you'll get the drift.

After 28 hours on the road (that includes stops for gas, food and of course the bathroom) my butt had just about enough it could take. I was welcomed by Kimi and Heidi who had a big pot of chilli ready and Liu (pronounced Lou) soon followed with Corona and Sundance Amber Ale from a brewery in Boulder, Co.




Here's a shot of me and the girls (Liu, Kimi, myself and Heidi) settling in for some beer, chilli and corn bread.




We were told that there was no internet connection at our apartment, but luckily we discovered a low signal that we could "borrow". The trick however is to sit against this wall with your legs out straight and your toes pointed.....this is what you resort to when you have no T.V....I repeat, no T.V.




Stay tuned!

Yee-haw

Much love
Jessica
