Colorado Vacation

We just got back from vacation in Colorado.  While some of the state is on fire, a lot of it isn't and we were near the fire area (close enough to see smoke at times) but far enough away to never be in danger.  We talked a lot about the fires raging around us and made sure we only unpacked as much as we needed so if we had to make a fast move we could do so.  It did make traveling around the state challenging in you had to find roads that where open.

We have friends that live in Colorado Springs and while we were not planning to visit them this trip we still haven't been able to reach them to be sure they are okay.  Hoping they are fine and that if their home was in the fire area that they got out and are safe. 

Since this was a family vacation (we were vacationing with R's family) we weren't able to have any spankings while we were gone and none since we've been home.  R got bite by a spider or an insect of some kind so I drove most of the way home from Colorado and Monday morning we were in the ER at 8 am.  So our vacation didn't end on a happy note.  The swelling is starting to go down in R's face so his cheeks don't look like a chipmunks stuffed full any more but there is still some swelling.  His temperament is improving also.  :) 

I hope everyone has a happy 4th of July.  Be safe and enjoy the fireworks if they are allowed in your area.  If you're not here in the states hope you enjoy the day also.
