Our last day was hectic. We woke up, had chex mix for
breakfast and packed everything in the bronco just to drive to a car wash to
unpack it in order to super clean the interior and the outside. A can of root
beet from Mississippi had exploded in the bronco because of the altitude and it
was everywhere! It was terrible but after tons of scrubbing inside and out and
$40 worth of cleaning supplies, Maria is clean and waxed. She is a lot more
high maintenance than I am! Cody got a storage unit for some stuff off base and
I had fun riding on the luggage cart while he pushed me!
We could see the Waldo
Canyon Fire in Colorado Springs for the first time and it was crazy! Cody got a
call about 2pm that he was supposed to have already been back instead of
arriving at 7, which is the normal check-in time so we left for Denver
immediately to drop me off a little early, which I didn’t mind since I was
excited to edit the pictures and get a blog post up, and I knew he had tons to
do when he got back. I think Maria didn’t want me to leave because she caused
us quite a bit of problems in the worst traffic in Denver…she got over it
though. It was probably the hardest goodbye yet, we had such an amazing trip
and I may have laughed more than I ever have. 
But, I boarded my delayed plane to
Nashville and was greeted by my mom, and Cody made it back to USAFA
after breaking down and life is back to normal I guess….except not. Cody is in
Las Vegas for 3 weeks and is going to get to fly in an F-16….I may or may not
be a little jealous. There are some things I wish we could trade places for haha but
I’m excited to get my new house in Oxford in the next month with Laurs and
enjoy this next month of summer before I start my intercession class in August.
Until next time, watch a sunset for me.
