A week and a half ago I got married to the mechanic man that I love, and he surprised me by taking our honeymoon to that place. That place that I haven't been to in six years. That place that gives me a sense of peace. That place that I hold dear.
That place is Buena Vista Colorado, high up in the mountains.
And boy, did I enjoy showing my man around to all my family's old haunts.
Now, I took a LOT of pictures that I obviously can't post all on here. But I want you to be able to see. Especially my family back home.

| I put this picture on for you, Erni. This is Kim's truck. She has a sticker on the back that says "God, guns and guts, let's keep it that way." | | | |
So I pretty much had a blast the whole time I was there. A part of my past came alive again, and I missed that part more than I thought.
We're hoping to make it back to that place.
And soon.
