Our first trip to Colorado

It is Thursday and we are getting ready for our first trip out to Denver. We have a busy week planned. We will leave Saturday and arrive Sunday. Sunday we hope to get familiar with the area and go to see our lot as well as the model of our home. Monday we will have an appointment with our builder and sign a lease for an apartment. Our plan is to live bare bones in this apartment to save money on moving twice. We will bring a few things with us on our trip that are essential, ie. TV, espresso machine, coffee maker, laptop, and the ipod clock radio. The rest we will buy when we get there or do without. Keith is working Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Friday we have another appointment with our builder and then we will be off to Keystone, CO for Keith's company picnic/BBQ. We will stay overnight in Keystone and leave there sometime Saturday to head for home. We plan to be home Sunday afternoon and Keith will work his last week here in CA before flying out on Sunday, August 12th to officially start in his new position.
As far as our home here goes we are on the market 5 days with no showings. Some pictures were posted on the MLS this morning so this may help. We are still waiting for the "virtual tour" photographers to come out to take their pix with the wide angle lens which helps show whole rooms but at least people know the home is not trashed. Here is a link to the mls -http://www.tarbell.com/f-property-search.html listing # I07107114.

As a side note I would like to ask my friends and family to pray for two special people. The first is for Max Kakuk who is 8 months old and having surgery in a few weeks on his brain/skull. His skull fused in utero and they have to go in and make some more room. He has a twin sister Tilly who I am sure is going to miss her brother while he is in the hospital. So please pray for this family and the surgeons and staff at the hospital. The second is an old friend of ours from the Arrowhead Pond (Honda Center) Mike O'Donnell. He is fighting a very hard fight with cancer right now and it is preventing him from eating or drinking and causing him to feel very sick. He is tired and has been fighting a long time but is still wanting to fight this fight. Please pray for complete healing as well as the strength and courage he and his family needs.
Thanks to all of you! -jane
