That happened to hubby and I before we were married (actually, that led us to get engaged). We made the most of it though and the garage that was working on the car was nice enough to give us a ride to a nearby mall so we'd have something to do while they worked on the car.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-61046746819166005702014-02-02T15:45:49.326-05:002014-02-02T15:45:49.326-05:00An abrupt ending, but nevertheless fantastic image...An abrupt ending, but nevertheless fantastic images and a lovely read.

I have been there several times, as you know. I'm glad the stay turned out so well. The sunset pic is gorgeous.

They think they're the doctor, and the rest of world knows nothing, lol. They will diagnose anything but what you suggest might be the problem.<br />Your room at BW was nice, and I'm so glad you had stores close by. I'm not a football fan, but if I were I'd cheer for Peyton. He's a nice guy. Hope your team wins. :) Have a great weekend.magnoliasnteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08517995125207145961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-36207373779543325032014-02-01T12:02:00.088-05:002014-02-01T12:02:00.088-05:00I hope you gave your local mechanic a piece of you...I hope you gave your local mechanic a piece of your mind when you returned. What a great attitude you had, though and made the most of your time there. <br /><br />I had a chance to shoot the magpie in Oregon, but my photos did not turn out as good as Doug's camcorder version. It is such a lovely bird. Your photos of the falls area are beautiful. Maybe the sky didn't turn out as you hoped, but it only served to highlight the gorgeous foliage. I love Colorado, but I've never been in the fall; only summer and spring.Gail Dixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15697820311332653232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-51529470736264988082014-02-01T12:01:05.136-05:002014-02-01T12:01:05.136-05:00I'm sorry to hear that your vacation ended on ...I'm sorry to hear that your vacation ended on a frustrating note, but it was still a great trip.

I'm also thinking that it's far better to be inconvenienced than to have had the car trouble cause an accident. I love the Magpie. They always make me think of Heckle and Jeckle. :)Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-54492498904432678282014-02-01T10:51:46.954-05:002014-02-01T10:51:46.954-05:00It's wonderful how you can take a disappointme...It's wonderful how you can take a disappointment in stride.
