Chloe had a 5 day weekend in February and we decided to drive to Utah. I'm not sure we'll ever do that again! We had terrible roads and visibility all the way to the border, and when we got there we were informed that the highway south of the border was closed and we couldn't continue. We spent the night in the last motel room left in Coutts, with only a double bed between the 3 of us.</div>

Ken offered to take the floor, but by 3am he hadn't slept at all, so we traded and he spent a few hours in the bed to hopefully be ready to drive the next morning. As it turned out the I15 was still closed, and we made (what turned out to be) the right decision to drive to Del Bonita and crossed the border and continued on from there. Had we waited in Coutts we would have waited for 4-5 hours.</div>

We had a sad interruption to our trip when we learned that Flex was very sick. He went downhill quickly and we lost him while we were away.</div>

Due to fog, our cruise actually departed a day late, which changed our itinerary and provided Ken with another day to rest up. I think any other trip could have been ruined by his injury, but with a cruise there was plenty of time to sit on a deck chair with his leg elevated. We managed to have a good time! Ken missed exploring the Acropolis in Greece and climbing up to the monastery ruins above Kotor, but we probably saw more of the island of Cephalonia since we elected to hire a taxi, and the walking tour of Split Croatia went at the perfect pace for Ken on crutches.</div>

16 couples rented a party bus to take them from Lake Sundance to The Lookout, to the banquet, to The Peace Bridge (for more photos), to the after grad, and then back to Lake Sundance. By then it was 1am and time for a house party until 5am followed by a sleepover for a couple of friends at our house, then breakfast at Hudson's.</div>

As if they needed more fun, a few of the graduates (and a sister and a younger friend) spent the weekend in Waterton</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm super proud of Carmen and the work she and her friends have put into their relationships. They've practised tolerance and forgiveness and love and fun over the high school years and they deserved every bit of enjoyment they had celebrating the end of high school. Last graduating class of 90's babies!</div>
