I went on a trip
I haven't posted in a while because I went on a 4,750 mile road trip with my best friend during the month of May.
We started in Colorado and drove to Chaco Culture National Historical Park near the four corners in New Mexico.
We drove 21 miles down a dirt road to camp near the incredible structure known as Pueblo Bonito. People traveled for miles
to attend ceremonies there between 850 and 1250 AD, but there is no definite answer as to what the building was used for.

Childhood Idyll
I recently went to the Denver Art Museum with my friend Kate. One of my favorite paintings of the day was called Childhood Idyll by William Bouguereau. There is a peacefulness in the painting that only a child with all the time in the world can express.
It reminded me of two young girls I met at a playground in Scotland 5 years ago. They led me to a creek where they caught tadpoles and yelled at boys on the opposite side. One of the girls reminded me so much of my sister Amanda, with her dark brown eyes and hair, and it made me miss my family. The time I spent with them is the most vivid memory I have of the trip. I think it is because I slowed down and saw things through their eyes, with all the time in the world.
They gave me their addresses and told me to write to them on their birthdays but I haven't.
