Farewell, Fort Collins

We spent more time in Fort Collins, CO, then we ever expected but what a sweet place to land. For nearly seven weeks, it was our home among some of our best friends.

We're so grateful to have crashed so long at Jess and Julia's. They are a fantastic couple with so much ahead of them in their lives together.  It was also our first experience with a Roomba (must get one!). Thank you for your hospitality!

I'm happy to have been able to be in the same city as my best friend Marc and his dog Einstein. I'm sad to leave them both. I'm glad we got to spend quality time with you, hanging out or hiking or seeing the town.  You couldn't have picked a cooler place to live.

One of my favorite memories of FOCO will be the day Marc and I had lunch and walked around downtown, talking to the shop owners and eating ice cream. And I loved the day we made crescent roll pizzas, all of us together, making pizzas. Among Dave's best memories are the hike up Mt Margaret on Julia's birthday and the music festival FoCO MX, where we biked from spot to spot hearing all kinds of different local bands.

FOCO made a great temporary home.  Colorado is stunning.  But we're excited for our new home: in a trailer at Crazy View Farm.

We'll miss you all. Please come visit us - it's only a ten hour drive north!
