Thursday July 19th

Flew out of Phoenix.  Uneventful flight, which often happens when I've taken enough Xanax to sleep through.  I was asleep at take off, last thing I remember was pulling back, then next thing I knew the pilot was making the announcement to land.  We landed in Denver, and I thought, "oh no" this was a mistake, it was HOT there too.  Not quite as hot at Phoenix, but not the break from the heat we were looking for.  Got to the rental care place and on our way.  Two hour drive to Vail.  Beautiful drive, with mountains and TREES!!!!  Only those that join me from Phoenix understand the happiness trees create.  Got to Vail and got lost several times before finding the right hotel.  It's called Manor Vail.  Beautiful all around.  This was our condo.  Groupon special of $130 a night in the "off season". 

It had a bedroom with walk in closet as well.  Not sure why I didn't take a picture of that. 

Temp was in the high 60's, and starting to rain when we got there.
