My girls have left for their band trip to Estes Park.
It will be an awesome trip no matter the weather, or the teenage drama.
I just know it!!
They have every minute of the day planned out.
Horseback riding, night hikes, crafts, zip line, swimming, theater, malls, tours, shopping, performing, Six Flags (and those are just what I can remember). They traveled on tour buses. Rylee was excited because the buses were even equipped with iPod chargers. (wow!)
She sent me a text this morning to say one of the band teachers got on the bus in his pajamas.
That is the sense of humor needed for this trip they have all been working towards since last October.
I am so happy for them.

I am not bound for any public place, but for ground of my own where I have planted vines and orchard trees, and in the heat of the day climbed up into the healing shadow of the woods. Better than any argument is to rise at dawn and pick dew-wet red berries in a cup. ~Wendell Berry
