Road Trippin...Fully Loaded With Snacks and Supplies

During the seven week break between semesters, Jon and I got a job working at a call center in Rexburg. Not the most glamerous job, but it paid the bills. At first when we got the jobs, we had these glorious ideas of working 8 hours a day but in reality the job was so boring. Everyday we would call strangers up and try to get them to complete a survey. I was never very good at it but, Who knew Jon would be such a pro.
Well anyways by the time we had worked a few weeks we were tired of the job and we felt we needed a break. Lucky for us, Jon's dad was heading to Colorado Springs for a buisness trip. When I heard this, I knew we needed to go on a road trip. It would be so fun to visit with Jon's dad, and it just so happens to be where I served for my 4 months away from Temple Square.
This was our first road trip together, and it was so fun.

The view through Idaho.




On Saturday, we took a drive to the top of Pike's Peak.
14,115 ft is a long way up.




We were all terrified of the ride up the mountain.









"You win, you always do!"







Jon's mom once had a dream where Jon's dad was in an
accident with a red car! Looks like her dream was fulfilled.

"You win, you always do"...thanks for the gut buster. Looks like you guys had a fun time. PS. I would have never gone on that mountain road. Or if I did, lets just say I wouldn't be wearing the same pants on the way home.

I am still trying to catch my breath from the lack of oxygen up that high! I look like such a homer in these pictures.

How come I didn't know you went to Colorado?
