We stayed at the Boulder Fairgrounds and did get to go to the fair. Ryan lucked out because the chickens were there. The judging had finished and many of them were for sale. Yes, he did push for us to bring some home. Tim told him that we can buy some and leave them with Grandma & Grandpa so that they could bring them down the next time they visit. For some reason they weren't interested....
I almost forgot about our parking garage incident! Let's just say that Big Tex (what we named our truck) was taller than the suggested clearance for a Boulder parking garage. He made it out by 2"? along with a very attractive, and minor (I promise Ross!) yellow highlight on the top of the cab. This came from the sign that tells you the clearance height when you drive in. It had rolled over the top of so many trucks that we couldn't read what it said ....this only would have helped if we knew how tall our truck is to begin with :) I guess the lack of legibility should have been our first warning sign. Having it roll over the top would then be the next but we felt like we were committed by that point. Notice the lack of bashing? I was a willing accomplice in the decision making on this one - that's my story and I'm sticking to it!
We are 2 hours from Amarillo and The Big Texan. Gotta go there for dinner!!!!
