Day 129 - USA Tour - Breckinridge, CO

Overnight: Breckenridge, CO
Chill Day

Today we didn't really do much of anything. I think I am suffering from altitude sickness, just a little bit. I am having trouble breathing and just feel sick at my stomach. Also, the pizza did not sit well with either of us last night. Dave said he feels light-headed and sick at his stomach, too. Fine pair we make today!

Late last night Dave went outside and unhooked the water hose just in case the temperature dipped below freezing. We sure didn't want the hose to burst. I filled 2 cups with water for our morning coffee before I went to bed. Gotta have the go-go juice on a frosty morn.

And, yes, it was really cold last night. Burrrrr. We cranked up the heated mattress and ye ol' furnace and made it through. It certainly was cold this morning. I am not even sure we didn't get a little more snow on them thar hills.

After we thawed out a bit, Dave hooked the hose back up. The little water that was left in the hose, was frozen solid. So we were glad that we had thought to disconnect it.

Dave sat outside for a bit early this afternoon at this nice sitting area. He found some sun and took a cat nap facing those beautiful mountains.



Later in the afternoon, we drove into town and filled up the car with gas and we took a peek at the township. It was upscale, as we assumed it would be. But, had some interesting shops. I think if we had felt better, we would have stopped to do some window shopping.

Back to the RV to rest of from the short drive--ha ha. Tonight, Dave drained the hose even better--it's only supposed to get down to 37 degrees tonight, as opposed to the 34 degrees last night.

We had soup for dinner as both of our tummies were still acting up.

I filled our coffee cups with water again, so we are ready to roll in the a.m. We need to scoot out of here quickly so we can get to Denver to the state park and get a site for a couple of nights. Over, out, and chillin'.
