Our Denver Trip


Sunday we left at about 10:30. It was later than we wanted but we had both worked twelve hour shifts so we were a little tired. There was a really big storm in Colorado the day before we left so we were a little worried about the roads. They were fine, but right when we were going in to Colorado there was a ton of fog and the visibility was pretty bad. We got to Johnny's aunt's house about 6:15 after getting a little lost. They had a great turkey dinner waiting for us. It was wonderful after along day of no food. We decided that we didn't really want to just drive all day Monday when we had just driven all day Sunday, so we decided to drive back Tuesday. So after Johnny's interview we went to Estes Park. It was a nice fall day in the mountains. We walked around down town and then headed up to the Stanley Hotel. Its a really famous hotel that happens to be totally haunted. It was really interesting to visit. I one of the shops there was this huge dog and I thought it was like a stuffed dog, but it was totally real. It was an Irish Bloodhound and the most laid back dog I ever saw. On our way home we spotted some big horned sheep. I cooked dinner for Faye and Bob on Monday night and made Pea and Potato Soup and rolls which was really nice for the cold day. When we woke up Tuesday we were both really sick and over slept so we got off a little later than planned. The drive home was fine and we got in about 7:00.
Johnny said the interview went really well, but he can't be accepted until they get both of the letters of recommendation. We are going to go to Logan tomorrow to see his professor and get the letter from him and send it priority mail ourselves. We are doing the same with the one form his boss today. Hopefully this whole letter thing will be over in a couple of days. I'm hoping to get Johnny to write about the interview because I can't tell you what happened.
