Prologue

My parents decided several weeks in advance that we were going to the state of Colorado. When I first heard of the news, I was thrilled. My brother and sister were just as happy about the idea as I was. The fact that our grandma, my dad’s mother, was taking the trek with us heightened our excitement levels significantly. Something that we were looking forward to was the car ride there and back. I have always enjoyed long car rides. Long stretches of gray pavement and yellow lines placed precisely in the middle of it. It gave me lots of time to think about things. My future, how life was going for me currently. It also gave me time to write on one of my stories and listen to music, or read a good book. One thing I really enjoyed about them was that although a car is never the most comfortable of vehicles to sleep in, the comfort level was sufficient for a good snooze in the backseat of the big black Yukon van my dad rented for the trip.
