North to Colorado

Today we traveled northwest through the Oklahoma panhandle and into Colorado. We're spending the weekend in the Pueblo area, before moving farther north on Monday.  Pretty much just sightseeing from the truck today, as we tried to get as far north as we could before time to stop for the night.

Learned something today about turn rounds under I-25 (at least in this part of Colorado).  You don't want to go under I-25 pulling this rig.  Of course, I was driving again.  You can see from the picture, that it's a "one lane tunnel".  Not only that, the clearance isn't marked. We were too tall for this one and Mickey had to back us out.

The girls are really good travelers.  In the truck they keep themselves occupied watching the scenery, listening to music, watching DVDs, and pestering their parents (but not too bad).  They've really been great!
Of course after all day in the truck, they need some kid time.  So we're trying to stay at campgrounds that have swimming pools and other activities.  The campground we're at right now has a pool and a jumping pillow.  The girls love it.

Sophie's doing good too.  She spends all day with her people, which is exactly what she likes.  She also likes "people food" A LOT.
