Well, we find ourselves in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Not a pre-planned destination but here we are. After calling the DMV from Albuquerque, we have learned that our title is still not processed and we have more time to wait. So we took a side trip up to Colorado with Ryan, Tracey's brother, and his girlfriend Rachel. We got to stop in and visit J's Grandma and Grandpa that happen to live in the same town as Rachel's family so that was a nice surprise. We're heading back down to Albuquerque with a stop at some hot springs along the way, which will be a wonderful treat. Being out of the desert, even just for the weekend, makes us all realize how much we miss the weather of the Bay Area.
Not sure how we will be passing the time while we wait, maybe we'll just have to throw another benefit! Our first one went quite well considering we had one week to throw it together. We had local jewelry makers bring their goods, we sold a few articles of clothing that we had made (you can check out our designs online as soon as we get pictures taken and posted!), and we sold some food that was donated for the event by a local sandwich shop in town, Chebba Hut. All in all, it was a great day. We had somewhat of a private performance by a soon to be legendary band, Sector 5. Look for the video on youtube (as soon as we find a way to post it).
Sadly, we had another big event take place recently. Lindsey went back to the bay. We said our goodbyes in Albuquerque and she took off for home. She made it back safely and we were all relieved and happy to hear that. We wish her well on her next journey, and we are sad that she is not coming with us on this one. But if you're in the bay and you didn't know she was back, call Evan, she's there!
We celebrated Jahsiah's and Tracey's birthdays this past week. If anyone has any belated birthday messages or gifts, you can always mail a check (made out to Tracey Saldivar) care of Ryan Saldivar to our home away from home and Costa Rica, 1400 Princeton St. SE Albuquerque, NM, 87106. As we are stranded for even longer than anyone could have predicted, if you had at some point considered sending a care package to us wayward travelers, I might suggest now as a good time, a measure to keep morale high. Just a thought.
Well, we are off to the Garden of Gods, I believe, and then back down south, but not far enough I'm afraid.
Love to you all and until next time,
The 6 Delayed Delinquents
