CO-JO: Non-Mobile Update Because I Figured Out the WI-FI!

So typing out "My Colorado Journey" as the title for every single entry seemed to bland and uncreative to me. Now I am going for the more creative approach by changing up the title a little bit every day in effort not to bore you, the reader, and to make myself feel more pleasantly creative.

It's about 9:00 local time...but I only use local time when I'm hungry so that I can make dinner one our earlier. And as you can tell, I forgot that I had a wireless button on my computer that I have to turn on in order for the WI-FI to work. As soon as I pushed the handy little button, voila! my wireless worked. Hence my blogging right now.

Today we started out the day by going to have a lovely little continental breakfast...it wasn't as impressive as I hoped, but still tasty. Then we headed up thousands of feet to bike down an insanely steep bike trail/road. Without saying too much about the trail itself, which with all it's varied aspens was beautiful, my little brother and I hit around 25-30mph on our bikes...now that is an amazing feeling...and scary actually. After we biked, we got back to the hotel and walked to the tennis courts, which were clear on the other side of a lake...but so worth it. Tennis is awesome. So we played tennis awhile, I sucked but it was fun whackin a little neon ball around with mi familia. Now after dinner and a little jacuzzi and shower, I am sitting here typing a blog. Not I am going to play some Wolfenstein.

My Colorado Journey: Mobile Update #4

Well, we didn't just get into the hotel but I've been making myself at home so the update is happenin' now! =) this place is huge...my Mom says it's much bigger than her first apartment! For some strange reason this fancy hotel doesn't have wi-fi so I have to continue updating from my phone. Goodnight!

My Colorado Journey: Mobile Update #3

Update time! We just stopped in Grand Junction and ate now we're back on the road once more. I'm writing my book and my Dad is driving. I got to have the wheel for three hours...it was amazing...a legal 75mph is awesome.

My Colorado Journey: Mobile Update #2

So we have just passed through something that looks kind of like the Grand Canyon...for all I know it might have been...but I didn't bother to ask so I have no idea. I get to drive in a little while and throw some Clapton on the sterio...it's gonna rock...until then it's reading time!

My Colorado Journey: Mobile Update #1

So we have made our first rest stop...needless to say I was already rested upon arriving. I'm not exactly sure where we are but it seems as though we are somewhere! Profundity aside...till later today! Mahalo, friends!
