Hampton Inn Durango Co

It seems so many experiences that I have these days I start to wonder how I can continue to proliferate a more peaceful world around me. I go to National Parks and I hear people talk about is wars in current times or in history. It seems most of human history ncludes a consistent parade of wars to count the years by. Even driving through a national Park seems to be pretty violent anymore.

Soon we will ...

Yesterday was a huge day in Mesa Verde National Park. We staggered into Durango, Colorado for much needed rest. Mum has not been feeling well today, some sinus thing that she got on the flight over no doubt. This town inspired Ayn Rand to include it in her epic novel Atlas Shrugged. It is a very ...

Yay! Tonight we had our first show (1 of 2) in Durango, CO and it went phenomenal! Everyone kept talking about how "it' happened. For those of you that have been involved with theatre before, then you know that "it" is. During each of our songs tonight there was an ephemeral moment, a moment in which we all felt the goosebumps and had to blink back tears. We felt like the audience could really understand our message and music. We touched lives tonight ...

... in a 3 hour intense fitness routine including: an hour of weightlifting, an hour of endurance (i.e. jump rope, sprints, block jumps, etc...) and an hour of basketball skills (90% of students participating were involved with basketball). During the summer, our high school was not air conditioned and garbage bins were conveniently placed around the gymnasium for obvious reasons.

Nope, I never had to use one :)

I absolutely loved this program ...

... the next few days. It has the coziness of a country home with all modern appliances and technology and beautiful artwork. I have my own bedroom with an adjoining bathroom. I also have no roommate! So, it's just Betty, the puppies, and I! It's going to be a great week :)

Well, it's almost time for bed! And Betty just cut up some watermelon for a bed-time snack and I can't pass that up :) Have a wonderful week everyone! :)

... there and it wasn't that great- nowhere near as good as the restaurants we had gone to the first time we had been in Durango. After that we were so tired we pretty much just headed back to the campground and sat around the fire. Oh yeah, and I took my bike for a test ride around the campground. This is the first time in about 15-16 years that I've had a bike!!
The next morning we went to the Brickhouse Cafe for ...

... ricocheted off the walls of the bowl, appeared to dissipate, then echoed back off the walls of the adjacent rifts after delays of more than 5 seconds. No wonder they were an hour late.

Unfortunately, the camera battery was charging back at the house. While it was nice to have a light load, the cell phone camera doesn't produce great shots. Better than nothing though.

... had created in the campus field. (Caitlin and Jen witnessed me run for the first time as well, and were shocked). Molly got out of class just in time to prove her frisbee skills to be even WORSE than Jens, and soon we decided to move on with our day. We then visited her crazy hippy friends in a house that looked like a bomb had exploded in and smelled like stale beer, went to another store and got ALLLLLLL the fixings for an amazing salad and my soon-to-be AWARD ...

... Had lunch in the car by the 3 sisters. Must have spent 4 hours stop and drive along the valley drive. There are limited accommodation around but saw new resort will be built shortly. A Navajo-owned The View Hotel and Resort is expected to be completed by 2008 .The gift shop already selling shirts with the resort name on it. Don't waste any time:> Hop back in the car and ...

... his life depended on it. Maybe it did. The flight attendant asked him several times to stow it in the overhead compartment-he simply stared straight ahead, sweating profusely. To my right was a 65-year-old woman trying desperately to look 55, kissing her rosary while making the sign of the cross .... We sailed over snow-capped peaks barely breaking above the clouds and tropical forests so dense the light never hit the ground. From this altitude you couldn't see the narco ...
