The Peavy Family Blog: Another Four Walls

We didn’t have any Labor Day plans as we didn’t know what this most interesting time would bring. Thanks to Alana and some last minute searching, we were able to get away for the long weekend. As Alana said, at least it would just be another four walls to stare at (and reprieve from the almost 100 degree weather in Louisville). Of course, it was so much more than that.

We hiked, we biked, we played games, we walked around Keystone and spent some fun time on Lake Dillon. While Marshall and Paul and two of the boys went golfing on Saturday, T-man and I headed to the lake with the other two members of the Wright family. We had two paddle boards and a kayak and after paddling into the wind, we decided to enjoy happy hour and float back to shore. This ended with a can of champagne at the bottom of the lake, a capsized kayak and many laughs.

We ended up tying together and floating in which meant we had to introduce Alana and her daughter to “Redneck Yacht Club” and we have determined the four of us are the founding members of Louisville, Colorado chapter.

Sunday brought another happy hour trip to the lake after a trip to Keystone and a then a yummy meal prepared by the Wrights. We enjoyed our late checkout on Sunday and did a little alpine hike on our way back to Louisville. I’m so glad we were able to get away - it definitely felt longer than the three days away.
