....when our kids were growing up,
we would load up the van and head for parts unknown.
Amanda was ten and David was getting ready to be a teenager.
We spent a lot of time during summer vacations in Colorado.
There wasn't much we didn't see or do.
Here we are on the top of Pikes Peak.
The air at 14,000 feet was very thin causing us to have trouble breathing,
plus, it was freezing up there.
Love,
my Calvary High School sweatshirt,
(I was a teacher then)
my frizzy topnotch of hair,
pedal pushers,
the way we are sprawled out on the bench.
Bubba drove us up the mountain.
It was a crazy, hairpin curved, sharp drop offs adventure
but we made it to the top.
When we disembarked from the van,
we were very disoriented from the ride up and the absence of air to breathe.
Our trips were true adventures!!
We were young and fearless.
We had the best of times.
I love now when our children talk of taking roadtrips with their kids.
We definitely gave them wanderlust.
What better way to grow up than in a van with your family having the times of your life.
