Moving to Colorado

I loaded my possesions into my car, which didn't take long because most of them were already in there, and headed to Colorado. I stopped at rest areas a couple of times to catch a nap. It was getting late as I approached Denver so I got off the highway and found a dirt road heading into a national forest and pulled over, put the seats down to get a good nights sleep. I bathed in a small stream at first light and headed into my new home town with an ambitious list of things to get done on day 1. I spent most of the day driving around looking for some place to get on line, and every little thing took along time because I had to figure out where I was and where I was going and usually had to stop along the way to figure out where I was and where I was going. The first night I headed out of town looking for camping. I had to go quite aways to get away from the private homes that extend up into the front range. After that I took advantage of the hospitality of Aunt Joyce and Uncle Daryll for about two weeks while I got started with classes and searched out an appartment.
