Day 9: On the road to Denver

Have you always wanted to know what it's like to drive from York, NE to Denver, CO? Of course you have!

First, you get on the interstate in Nebraska. And then you drive a whole bunch!

This is what you see! A lot.

Then you get to Colorado! Hooray!!!

Here is where you go to the bathroom and collect brochures.

And then you drive through Colorado!

This is what you see in Colorado. A lot.

Also this.

Occasionally, you pass this! And then it smells like cow farts for awhile, which is very unpleasant.

And then you see some of this, which is better than cow fart smell.

And then ohmygodohmygodohmygod, are those the Rockies??? Then there's a lot of freaking out. It's so much better than cow farts.

And then you are in Denver, hooray!

Once we were in the city we stopped by the hotel that my brother and his family were staying.

My brother throws our nephew around.

Mark throws our nephew around.

Our nephew and niece throw each other around.

After we were done hurling our family members around Mark and I stopped by the local Barnes & Noble to sign some stock. What can I say, I just can't give up doing book events cold turkey. And by the way, the B&N people in Denver rock.

Michael, Amanda, and Patrick, super-friendly book people.

We are pooped, but extremely happy to be here and to be staying in the same hotel for two whole nights. Next book event--September 2nd, the Barnes & Noble in Rochester, MN at 7pm. Mayo Clinic--I'm looking at you to represent.
