Monday we got up early with the dogs – time changes and a good nights sleep after a 300 mile drive fighting crosswinds makes people pretty tired. This KOA in Pueblo has a lovely option of a few “private patios”. It has been a huge blessing being able to take the dogs outside and let them have room to run and play. We spent some time out with them and then needed to run a few errands. Ever since I got my glasses it’s been a struggle getting them to not hurt my bridge of my nose. I hit the eyeglass place while Michael ran to Best Buy across the road and found a camera for the RV.
Having recently brought a new dog in to the family has made us a bit nervous with them alone at times. When we are home in Austin we frequently will check in on them when we’re out for extended periods of time to make sure they are okay and brace ourselves for any destruction they may have chosen to do while we were gone. We knew on this trip especially we had some days planned to sightsee and learn the area and wanted a way to check in on them and the camper so, Michael bought a small camera that hooks to our internet hotspot. This will give us a better sense of security and peace knowing we can check on things on our home away from home.
Part of the purpose of this trip is getting a feel for the area and looking at some property in Colorado. We spent part of the afternoon, with the dogs assistance of course, driving out to a few properties we had in mind. We saw some beautiful countryside and enjoyed the trip to see places we’d had in mind. Along the way, as the dogs heads are hanging out windows, we stopped along an area that had open grazing for animals. As I am taking a picture of a cow, Moki has always been fascinated by cows, Moki’s head is out the window and the cow mooed at him. Moki jumped back and just stared – he’s always loved looking at them but never has had one talk to him. It was one of the highlights of my day.
