I’m here!
Posted by Sarah in entertainment, food, miscellany, music on Dec 14, 2008 | 2 commentsI have finally arrived in Leadville. Well, I arrived in Leadville yesterday. It took approximately 24 hours of driving but was largely uneventful.
My awesome friends in Saginaw gave me a gift of meaningful road snacks and a great mix CD. What are meaningful road snacks? The Dark Chocolate Raisinets that a guy at the movie theater told me were “the best thing I have ever put in my mouth.” The Ho Hos that Spouse asked me to buy for Carly, because Carly really wanted them, but when I got home it turned out they were just for Spouse. The Mint Milano cookies that are my favorite. You get the picture.
The mix CD had memorable songs from memorable events in the last three years, which was fantastic. I pretty much jammed out all the way across country. And the first thing I did (once I was functional) was hook up the wireless connection. Because I’m a geek like that (not internet obsessed or anything).
Today we’re taking our guests out and around the local area, hopefully eating some great food, and picking up odds and ends. And then spending the next three weeks unpacking boxes.
Okay, I know you are busy, but let’s see some pix!
I hope you love it in Leadville – God knows you might not be able to get anywhere else until April! Do me a favor – hit up Provin’ Grounds for some tea and hot chocolate, and report back so I can add them to my review. (I failed to try either when I was in town, and I’m not sure when I’ll make it back.) And do come visit the valley in the new year. Good luck!
