And We're Off!

Dante has managed to talk me into taking a REAL vacation.
What does this mean? We are headed on a road trip, despite gas prices! We haven't had a vacation together in a long, long time, and we've been looking to explore the other states that surround Oklahoma. We've been to Kansas; Arkansas; Missouri; and of course, Texas. But we haven't hit Colorado or New Mexico!
With mom's illness and death, with the health of Dante's father, and all the other chaos that has consumed our lives over the past two years, we're so happy to get away.
Where are we headed, you ask? Our trip will start in Santa Fe, New Mexico; then, we'll go to Taos; then we will meet Dante's family in Copper Mountain, Colorado.
Lots of art towns (my favorite); one spa stop between Santa Fe and Taos (Ojo Caliente); lots of HIKING, biking and kayaking; and a meeting with dear friends Kelly and Shad, who live in Denver.
You'll hear from me upon my return on July 8!
