Dear Diary...

a few months ago i was catching up with a dear friend (who just so happens to be the bomb nanny that taught me to read) and we were catching up on life and all the sudden i realize i have invited myself to live with her. being the saint that she is, of course, she says yes. so a little background on ade...coolest chick alive. and she pretty much rocks my socks off. on a more serious note she honestly just exudes and radiates joy in all that she does. i have always looked up to her and why wouldnt you want to surround yourself with someone like that? no brainer! so fast forward to present day. friday jan 20 i hopped in "handsome" (my 4runner) and started the 13 hour journey to Castle Rock, CO. of course when i decided to embark on this adventure a couple months back i was thinking gah that'll be a great drive to the denver area, but would i really want to take the same route back? so the spontaneous side of me (that no one knew existed) decided...why not travel across the west coast? so thats what i plan to do. (without planning too much, dont wanna lose that spontaneity)

1. castle rock, co (two weeks)
2. breck and fort collins (4 days)
3. four corners
