Everyone say "CHEESE," it's 40 degrees!
How many days left?
Getting ready for the Breckenridge Hat Parade!
Today we awoke at 3:45. We went hiking on Quandary Peak, it was approximately 14,265 ft. above ground level with about 3,000 ft. of elevation. It was 5.4 miles in all-it took us 8 hours. We saw lots of cute little animals on this strenuous hike, including dogs, mountain goats, and mostly pikas (cute furry hamster looking things). This was one of our toughest hikes and some people had trouble breathing, but everyone made it to the top! After hiking we all piled into the vans and went to a sick-nasty hat store. Everyone got a crazy hat. While walking through Breckenridge, people on the street thought we were crazy when they saw 17 kids walking with wild hats. Then, when we got back to the house, some girls made cookies, everyone started packing, we're getting ready to possibly watch Alice in Wonderland, and go out to the Dillon Dam Brewery for dinner. We'll be on our way home tomorrow. This was an awesome trip. We will all remember it forever. We all became a closer Cool Runner family. Our 2010 Colorado trip was 'beastly' and an amazing experience, mostly because Mr. Hollmaier, Ms. Dunbar, and Ms. Bryant. Thanks chaperones! We had a great week and you guys made it memorable.
Thanks again chaperones, see you tomorrow families!
