We made it back to Colorado yesterday and the trip was pretty uneventful. I drove the Durango (Amanda said we should call it "The Soldier" cause it just keeps marching on with 257,000 miles) anyway the soldier made it without a hickup. When we got here it was -5 degrees and the water in the 5th wheel was frozen solid. So here we are with no water. Good thing Cliff's Mom and Dad are next door and are kind and generous enough to let us go over there for all water related needs. I can go pee here but that's all and then no water to wash my hands. I didn't feel like walking over next door to wash my hands so I opened a bottle of Budweiser and washed my hands with that. Smelled wonderful. HA It's suppose to be up to 40 in Friday and Cliff thinks he can get it thawed then. So until then..........
Alecia came over and spent the night with us last night and is coming over again tonight and we are gonna watch movies. I had to buy a cord to hook the TV to the laptop and now we should be ready. Anyway I took the girls to lunch this morning (I just had a latte) then met Cliff and Lane and Cliff and I split a Smashburger for lunch. Then I went and got a few groceries so I'd have something for Cliff's lunch. I really can't cook without water (oh darn lol) but he still has to eat on the mountain.
Cliff's crew goes out to location tomorrow and I hate it. The place they are working is above Parachute and is up the side of a steep mountain and there is so much snow that they had to pull the semi's up there with bulldozers. It has been -25 so it's burrrrr. Anyway I guess it is what it is but I still hate it.
