Have you ever slept in a teepee?



Yeah, I've slept in a teepee. I don't know if Holly can say the same thing or not. She spent the night in a teepee, but I'm not sure there was a whole lot of sleeping going on. You'll have to ask her, but I think she had a rather cold, uncomfortable night. I think at 5:30 am she was done trying to sleep in the teepee. She left the teepee around 6am, so she was definitely done at that point. Me, on the other hand, I slept more than I expected to.

We rolled into Cody around dinner time, found our teepee, got some dinner, and headed to the Cody rodeo. In the morning, after our night in the teepee, we headed on back to Boulder, Colorado. Seven and a half hours later and we were done with the road trip. It was during those seven and a half hours that Holly got a little punchy and asked me to give her a pep talk. She said she needed some vocal caffeine. Then she made me announce all of the items in our food bag as if I were presenting them on The Price Is Right. She criticized my first attempt, but was pleased with my description of the pita chips as being "mint in bag" (they hadn't been opened yet). You can draw your own conclusions from all of this as to our mental state after all those hours on the road with limited social interaction with other people, but I will say that those seven and a half hours actually weren't too bad. They passed rather quickly and we were back in Boulder by 3pm.

  1. Teepee was freezing. The whole night I wanted to sleep in the car, but I didn't want Jamie to post that on the blog. I survived though.
