Colorado/Nebraska Adventure Blog!
Day 1:
Yesterday, my coworker and I flew out to Denver, which as we all know is my happiest place on earth. I was out here two weeks ago on business for a client and the weather was fantastic. He weather is not so great this time. We pretty much traded cold for cold and fog. That's not very appealing but I guess ute that's what happens when you travel during the winter months.
The flight was fine. I managed to finish reading The Soul Consortium on the plane and then almost immediately started reading Ender's Game. I had to stop reading and close my eyes as I hadn't stopped decompressing from the last science fiction book. Brain overload. I'm hoping that since that's a short read I'll get through that quickly.
Once we had the rental car we stopped in Englewood for supplies. Our destination for the week is Sidney, NE - the home of Cabela's headquarters and well, there's really nothing out there. Even the client wasn't sure what they were going to do with us recreationally. So now with this stigma in mind we packed our electronics for the long haul. I actually checked my bag because of the length of the trip and it allows me to carry more items to keep me occupied in my free time.
We the. Made our way down to Colorado Springs where we met up with everyone for Nerd Night. It was great to see everyone. Even Bobby & Shanna dialed in to say hi. We broke our Kristin's new favorite board game called Pandemic. It was actually pretty fun with all of us trying to save the world. I. Might look more into that later. Some of the rules were confusing but what new game doesn't have confusing rules, right?
Today we make our way up to NE. I think the idea is to stop at a Cabela's store and get new winter coats as Dave and I are not prepared for this cold. I it's my 60 degree weather that was here two weeks ago :(
