DAy 14 - January 17, 2011

Back in Charlottesville! The drive was made from Vail, CO to Charlottesville, VA in exactly 28 hours and 20 minutes. Leg cramps. The drive was much better than anticipated and our valiant steed, the Windstar, held up like a champ with no problems at all. Kansas was pretty long again, but the time passed quickly because we were counting hawks perched by the highway. There were 73 hawks. Well the trip has come to a close, the Windstar Boys are home safe and sound, and the Windstar itself is sparkly clean again, without even a scratch.

Day 13 - January 16, 2011

Good morning America. The Windstar is once again packed and ready to rumble. The Windstar Boys are alive and well, ready to begin the journey home. This marks the beginning of our 29 hour (hopefully) drive back to Charlottesville. We will be leaving Vail in the next few minutes and then driving non-stop until we arrive in C-ville. Game time.

Day 12 - January 15, 2011

Today was another "steezy" day on the slopes. Unfortunately no video footage because we all wanted to maximize our time skiing/boarding. Just imagine the most beautiful ski slopes ever. That's where we were. We spent some time on the the Back Bowls and Blue Sky Basin. Once getting back to the condo we packed our stuff and got to bed at a decent hour. Time for a 29 hour drive tomorrow, starting at 5:30 a.m.

Day 11 - January 14, 2011

Dear Diary...

No video today because nothing really happened. Today was a relax day. We woke up late, slightly sore from skiing, and hung out around the condo. In the afternoon we saw The King's Speech and then "grilled" (on the stove-top) some bbq chicken for dinner. As a supplementary video check out the trailer for The King's Speech: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAm7gRXFiRo

Day 10 - January 13, 2011

We "shredded" hard, and to use another snowboarding term, we got "steezy." In other words, we were "styling easy."

Day 9 - January 12, 2011

We travel to Vail, meet up with Barrett's Dad, get to know Vail Village and the condo, and plan out the first day of "shredding."

Day 8 - January 11, 2011

Colorado Springs: no historic monuments, The Air Force Academy, Qdoba, The Olympic Training Center, and Garden of the Gods.
