The Carusos go to Colorado

On July 4th we headed to Colorado for 10 days. Our goal: to relax, take in a few sights, and catch up with old friends. We had a great time! Some trip highlights included a ride on the cog railway to the top of Pikes Peak (14,110 ft), the Coors Brewery tour, a day at the Denver Zoo, the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, lunch in downtown Denver, visiting Fort Collins and Pueblo, hanging out with friends, Miles' new haircut, and escaping the Seattle heatwave that struck while we were out of town.

Here's a little bit of our trip:

A quick get-away to Lopez Island

A couple days after school got out, several gals from work--Carrie, Sarah, Anna, Sheri, and I--were able to get away to Lopez Island for a little relaxation. We stayed at Carrie's family cabin. And although Miles and I were only there for one night, we sure had a great time. Plus, Miles got to take his first ride on a ferry!

The Caruso Family is off to Denver in a couple hours and will be gone for about 10 days. We're looking forward to some fun family time and will definitely have stories and photos to share when we get back.

We wish you all a fun and safe 4th of July!
