Matt earned some comp time last week when he stayed over the weekend in California, so we're kicking off memorial day weekend by taking half days and going with our siblings (the ones who live in tow, that is) to Six Flags Elitch Gardens. Elitch Gardens have been a CO institution since … like forever. They used to be real deal huge tree gardens with great picnic shelters and a visible lack of comercialization. But times have changed and they were bought up by Six Flags a long while back and then moved down town where there were noticably fewer trees and noticably more Warner Bros. characters and swag. Oh well. 
It's supposed to be a gorgeous day, so I'm really looking forward to some water rides and sun. And heck, even if it rains, we all have season passes, so we can come and go as we please. Happy Memorial Day Weekend!!
Have an awesome day and weekend!!!!
Hope everyone had a good time!
