My trip to CO. and my new love

Jackie was so nice and invited me to her family reunion in Colorado. Her parents have a cabin up in a small town just north of the border called Cortez. We drove for 8 hours but it was all worth it. My weekend was packed with many firsts. She has a huge family but she was so nice and made sure to include me in everything. First off the elevation was 7500 feet and that played a cute trick on me my first morning there. Combine that with me not taking my blood pressure meds the night before and well ...I will be more careful in the future. But after that it was smooth sailing. We went fishing and I finally caught my first firsh ever. Chad's taken me a few times but neither of us have ever caught anything in any of our lakes here at home. She is a fishing wiz. She managed to get me to catch a fish and then eight more for all the kids that came with us but she cleverly disguised it as though they had caught the fish...which makes me think she did that to me too but she swears she didn't. I believe her, it makes me feel less useless! Then we went on a horseback ride and I've never been on a horse. I was pretty freaked out at first. Mostly because I thought at any moment this horse could get spooked and just take off and I'd land on my neck in the process. I had a slow sweet horse that took it's time. He probably felt how tense I was and how hard my thighs were holding on. At one point we fell far behind the other riders so I gave him a gentle push to move faster and he started to gallop. I pulled back on his reighns and started yelling "Whoa!" over and over again but I was laughing at the same time. Now I know you're thinking "hey, is Jackie your new love? what does that title mean?' Well, yes Jackie is one of my loves now but I was referring to the horse I rode. I kissed his nose and we just loved eachother afterwards. Horses always kinda scared me before but now I absolutely love them. On my way home (I drove my own car) I stopped at Four Corners and that was pretty much exactly as I had envisioned it. I made it home in only 6 hours this time. I love my little car. It goes 95mph without even the slightest hint of hesitation. I had such a good weekend. Poor Chad couldn't come as he was working as always.
