Cleaning up after a big trip is not very fun.  My truck needed hosed out.  It was so dusty, I washed the floor mats in the washer.  It seems hard to believe so much actually went to Colorado and so much came home.  I have to say we came home with something that stopped many a person at every gas station we went to..... an ELK HORN!!  Stan (a family friend) gifted my son a hat and an elk horn.  (how manly can you get)???   It is like a magnet, everyone wants to look and talk about it.  It is currently sitting in the garage, precariously close to John's car LOL 
  Tomorrow I have jury duty.  I am not thrilled about that but thrilled about starting the school year with both children this week!  I started schooling my oldest 5 years ago... Wow how the time goes by.  The youngest starts K/1st  this week.  He is going to be a challege.... but he has met his match.  I do not give up easy.
The garden is really in full swing.  We have had watermelon, cantaloupe, okra, tons of peppers, eggplant, corn, basil, squash, tomatoes, garlic, onions,beans and cucumbers.  It is almost time to be thinking of Spinach, turnips, radishes, mustard, collards, and the rest of winter veggies.....  I have a new group of tomatoes started.  The garden goes on!
