Going to Colorado

SuperPizzaBoy and I are flying to Colorado Friday. We are going to participate in the celebration of niece Jillian’s graduation from Colorado State University. Jillian is one smart cookie and she has worked pretty darn hard to get where she is. She is a champion horse judge and has won a bunch of awards doing it. We are mighty proud of her. She is going to slapping her dorky old uncle around because the photograph doesn’t do her justice.

So we get prepared. Clothes, camera, etc. Most important is I downloaded 500 geocaches into my two GPS receivers. It’s just not prudent to go out of state without at least one backup GPSr. I just hope that my sister Ellen doesn’t get too mad at me. She should understand, she’s geocacher, so is her husband Irvin. For that matter I think Jillian is also.

Hmm…. I guess this might run in families.

    hehehe…I can relate to this a bit. My younger daughter (20) always complains about the photos I post of her. So now I have to submit them before posting, for her go-ahead. 🙂

    And my older daughter is graduating from college in a couple of weeks.

    Congratulations to your neice on her accomplishment. Having two kids in college, I understand how hard she’s worked. It seems like kids have to work so much harder; it’s so competive now.

    Thank for commening on my Sky Watch post and I hope you have sunnier skies soon. We’ve had a lot of rain this week, too and it’s been chilly. Today was nice, though.

    Congratulations to your niece and you and SPB have a great time out there. Sounds like you’ve got a lot of fun planned. I was interested to hear about your father’s visits to DC. Hope you all get out to enjoy the city this summer.
