One week of vacation, a short night of sleep, and the mood
is set for leaving Colorado…exhausted, cranky, ready to just be home. But the fun
wasn’t over yet!
Dad wanted one last fishing extravaganza in so he, mom, and
the boys went down to the river at the resort for a little fly fishing. Bryson
and Gabe both caught tiny fish. Meanwhile, Casey and I packed up our stuff back
at camp and Ellie took a little nap.
Papa, Barrett, Gabe, and Bryson
We pulled the camper out of the spot at noon, loaded the
motorcycles, had one last photo as a group just outside our resort, in the
Rocky Mountain National Park.
Oh, Ellie. We feel you.
Stopped at McDonald's for lunch in Winter Park.
She was done.
Then it was Eastbound and down for about 8 hours. Denver traffic was kinda horrible and it took us a
while to get through. When we hit Goodland we hooked a right to enjoy an
evening at the famous Wallace County Fair in Sharon Springs, KS. For my B’ville
friends…it’s like a fair, but at the kiddie park. Cheap rides, great small kid
rides, cheap games with fun prizes, and a whole bunch of salt of the earth kind
of western Kansas people running the whole show. No creepy carnies, and only
one sketchy looking ride operator. Probably the nicest fair I’ve ever attended.
Gabe and Barrett.
Those protective big brother hands on Barrett were
more for Gabe's comfort than Barrett's.
The kids rode to their hearts’ content and played games
winning a couple of fun prizes. My phone said midnight when we finally drove
back to the camper. But, I guess they’re still on mountain time there so it was
only 11. Still very late and it was another short night of sleep before getting
up the next day to finally head home.
