Greetings from Durango, CO!

We left at 4pm CST yesterday and finally arrived to Durango, CO after driving nonstop for 28 hours straight. We did stop several times to get gas, eat, and see the largest cross in the Western Hemisphere in TX (ok, not really, but we did see it). Jason took the first shift at the wheel, then somewhere around midnight Dan took over (Amber & I fell asleep at this point). Dan was determined to make the drive straight to Amarillo, TX. Once in Amarillo (9:30am)Keenum then took the wheel to only make it around 6 hours at the wheel. Jason has some precious film of Keenum getting very aggravated at the wheel.

It's already been quite a journey. I have had altogether, maybe, five to six hours of sleep. It was a rocky night sleeping in this RV. None of us really slept a wink. Dan though, is the real trooper. He has not slept yet. 38 hours and going without sleep. He's about to pass out any minute now...

Durango is beautiful! It's one of those towns in CO where the air smells like pure heaven - pine trees, fresh air, just heaven. I want to bottle it. Plus, it was 65 degrees at 7pm and now it's in the 50s and no humidity, which is heaven to me.

As for the surprise for the trip... my dad made us shirts. :) The picture below is of us before we left on this lovely road trip. We would have posted earlier but our internet connection has been spotty while on the road.

I will note for baby Ber that our music selection has mostly been the greatest hits from Alabama ("18 Wheeler"), 50 Cent, Ben Harper, The Guess Who (who I had never heard of until this trip), and for a brief moment on the trip Jason, Keenum, Dan & I joined in on some a ccapla traditional hymns while Amber slept.

We've been through six states already. We'll be in Durango tonight and tomorrow night before heading out to Utah to Zion N'al Park.
