We created a new tradition between the Leonard's and the Schultz's...the kids produced and acted out their own theater shows!

After going to the park and trampoline rides, we went to the mall for food and drinks. I don't think I can take the girls to the mall any more; they seemed to look at Victoria's Secret for far too long for my comfort.

M and O really enjoyed the free trampoline rides, but O looked a little disoriented.

While the girls waited in line for the trampoline ride, C listened patiently to the bands playing. It turns out C really likes blues.

View from the top of the mountain and the tramway. Estes Park can be seen in the backgound.

We picniced at the top of the mountain after getting off the tramway. The kids crawled all over these rocks chasing after chipmunks and having a good time. On these rocks, the kids were much faster than me, so I couldn't really keep up. I'm just glad nobody fell off the mountain!

We picniced at the top of the mountain after getting off the tramway. The kids crawled all over these rocks chasing after chipmunks and having a good time. It doesn't look it, but the kids are sitting quite a ways above the the ground below them. The chipmunks were very friendly...and hungry!

These were the four monkeys I was marooned with at the top of the Estes Park aerial tramway.

The aerial tramway in Estes Park, CO. Elevation at the bottom is about 7,000 feet; the top of the mountain adds about another 1,100 feet.

We saw this really cool game at an Old Navy in Fort Collins. The machine projects an image of the game on to the floor and you can interact with it by stepping on it and kicking at objects you see. It really entertained all the kids for quite a long time.

Our first refueling stop at a Sinclair station in South Dakota. Why does Sinclair use a dinosaur as a trademark?

Amazingly, we had plenty of room for all our stuff in the back of the van. This is the most organized we've ever been at the start of a road trip.

Prime Steel Car Show. I found my car...a rare turbo Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. The owner was willing to sell it, for $35,000!

C's really excited about being at church! Camp Jamboree at First Presbyterian Church. We had a good potluck dinner. Then the group provided a great service and lots of good music!
