Breckenridge

Our goal, for this vacation, was simply to put our feet up, relax and enjoy ourselves. Which is exactly what we did!

Our apartment was just about a mile from downtown. On our first day in Breckenridge, we leashed up the pups and walked down the hill (the going home part wasn’t quite as much fun!) We walked all the way through downtown back up into the mountains for a short one mile hike. As you might expect, on our way back through downtown, we found the Starbucks and chilled for awhile!

After a relaxing afternoon, we headed out for an evening run. We quickly discovered that the two mile jog, we had planned, away from Breckinridge was a nice slight downhill slope. This meant that the two mile run back was not going to be oh so pleasant! Boy were we right. Not only did we have to run uphill the entire way back, but now we were running into the wind. To add to the fun, a little rain came out of nowhere, pelting our faces as we ran. I guess we were asking for an adventure, and we got it!

Not that you want to hear every detail of our trip, but I do have to share this minor detail! We ended the night with a competitive game of Scrabble. If you don’t know my husband, then I have to tell you, normally he would win hands down. He’s always my go to guy when I need to know how to spell a word, or what a big word means. BUT, that night I whipped him! He was playing words like toy and no, while I was playing words like vivid and rakes.
