Family Vacation - COVID-STYLE, Day 7 - Cortez

After an amazing week at our condo in Ruidoso, it was time to put more miles on the van. We cleaned, loaded, and checked out.

It was a long and mostly uneventful ride. After nearly 8 hours in the car, we pulled in to the exact same hotel we had stayed at the previous week.

The kids wanted to swim so we sent them to the pool about 8:30. Crafty and I got in a hot tub just a little later.

Then a guy in the pool lost one of the lenses in his prescription glasses. He was devastated!!

Curly and Baby Doll helped him look for it with their goggles until some bratty kids got in. Curly promised to come back when the pool closed at 10:00.

At 10:05, he was working with the front desk attendant to find the lens. After floating on his stomach for nearly at hour in the cold water, he finally spotted the lens on the bottom of the pool.

I was proud, but even more proud when he refused any type of reward. Here is his version of the smolder.
