On Thursday it was discovered that Katie had an abscessed tooth. Pete took her into Colorado Springs to have it extracted. We decided to do some driving around and looking for trouble while we waited for them to come back and Susan to arrive.
My Jeep. : )
My backseat drivers.
And trouble we did find. This road's ruts had diverted a creek to run down the road. When driving in mud generaly the best idea is to stay out of the ruts. Not this time. The Jeep made it down the road safely but the 4-runner spun around and got stuck.
The good news was that Chad got to finally use his winch. I thought for sure he would be mad at me for getting him stuck but he wasn't. He was just happy to show off his winch It took winching it three times to get him turned around and headed back in the right direction.
The kids gave up and went to hang out with everyone else in the Jeep. Once unstuck we headed back to the cabin.
Katie and her newly extracted tooth.
The mountains are a ton of fun, but one does start to miss the conveniences of the city. Grocery stores, gas stations, wi-fi, cell phone coverage and fast food. Pete brought back two dozen donuts!
