In the place I love the most

I'm here in beautiful Colorado Springs with our fabulous friends Chad and Sara and I'm asking myself, "Why don't we live here?" We just might have to do something about that. Jason and I visited Eagle Lake, saw familiar faces, hiked familiar trails and got to hang out with Marko who is now working at the camp as well! I don't think I'm going to be able to walk tomorrow because of our 12 miles covered in the last 24 hours on top of the fact that I'm just not in the greatest shape right now. We still plan to hike a 14er with Drew and Debby this week, but I'm not yet convinced that I'll survive the trip. I just love this place so much. Even if we're not in the mountains hiking, its just fabulous to drive down the road and see them in the distance. They're so majestic and so spiritual. I just can't help but be giddy in this place I love it so much.
So, I'm a nanny now for a 3 year old named Maggie, who I love, and a 5 year old named Matt, who I love when he's not beating up Maggie =) Those big brothers, always trying to prove something. It's funny though, the more time I spend with children, the less I want my own. I better stop hanging out with kids all the time soon or little Jason Junior may never come into existence! Jason is working at an outdoor store now which is fabulous for him on many levels. He can walk to work in 7 minutes, he timed it, he gets to sell stuff he thinks is cool, he gets to work with cool people, and he gets a fatty discount. Oh yeah.
The only current problem with Colorado is that Sophie the dog is not here to enjoy it with us. I miss that little dog so much! I don't need children as long as I have Sophie. Until next time...
