The drive to Frisco was the first time I had started seeing mountains like this. I mean, we saw grassy mountains in Idaho, the snowy Mt. Rainier in Washington, and desert mountains in Arizona and New Mexico. But this was different. This was the kind of mountain with grass and trees on it until you got to a certain point, and then there would be just a little bit of snow right at the top. Like I mentioned before, each drive was vastly different from the one before.
This happened to be our most intense car conversation day. We had been in the car together for over two weeks, the conversation was bound to get pretty deep at some point, and this leg of the journey just so happened to be that time. But that didn't stop me from taking note of Mark's awesome bike tan. Different lines from wearing different jerseys on different rides. Too funny!
As soon as Laura got off work we went out in the unexpected rainstorm for dinner at the Dam Brewery. I honestly think we only went there because of the name. Who wouldn't want to say that they've eaten at the Dam Brewery?
I only wish that I would have gotten one of their t-shirts. We laughed a lot at dinner and enjoyed every second that we had together.
When we got back to the house, Mark let Laura and I have some time to hangout together one-on-one. Breaks from school have been the only time I have gotten to see Laura lately. Summer vacation, Winter Break, and Spring Break. But we were both away for this summer, but it worked out awesomely that our paths could cross in Colorado. It's so crazy when you are so used to seeing someone in a certain city and then you get to meet up somewhere completely different.
We stayed up late playing games, talking and eating chocolate. And once again, before we knew it, it was time to leave again. Though I knew I would see Laura again in just a couple days in Denver!
Until next time,
Jordan
