| were pretty hard. So we just took our clothes | | | | Since a few weeks ago, I had the habit of |
| with us, although we have a very great | | | | locking the doors manually without the key |

| time we just wanted to spend the days in bed | | | | did it have to happen here in the middle of |
| or explore the well known restaurants in | | | | the highway?" I asked my lovely wife who was |
| Colorado. | | | | at this moment not that lovely anymore. |
