Time to Head South
October 16, 2006
We enjoyed a leisurely morning with John, Rip and Gonzo. John headed off to work all dressed up in his suit because he had a lunch meeting. We finished up some laundry, cleaned up the house and by afternoon we headed south. Safeway gas with our extra ten cents a gallon off the regular price was just$2.09 a gallon compared to most stations at $2.39. We filled up. We wanted to get south so hit the interstate going south, I25. In Colorado Springs we watched snow fall on Pikes Peak, passed the Air force Accademy and Garden of the Gods and continued with the traffic past Patterson Air Force Base and through town. Traffic was heavy, but we stayed with it and made it out the otherside moving free. Tumble weeds blew across the road. We made it out of the dark cloud cover into the blue. The sun felt good. We arrived in Pueblo, CO and found a Buffalo Wild Wings where Will played some Buzztime Poker getting on the big board with over $30000 and Kathy played QB1 predicting the plays of the football game of Chicago vs Arizonia. She was top scorer on the local board with 54% of her calls correct. We settled in at the Windgate Inn for the night.
