Back on Track....
So, although I haven't been very good with updating this here blogthingamajig, I have been having a lot of fun. After Aspen and a few places south of there, I headed through Colorado Springs, Denver...didn't stop in either of those places...and on towards Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park. For some reason, Denver seemed 'new', hard to put into word, but the roads, buildings and other things in a typically human infested city seemed cleaner and newer than I am used to in the Bay Area. I stopped for the night in a suburb of Denver called Westmininster. The next morning, I headed towards Rocky, it was a great ride the whole way through. Estes Park at the base of the park is kinda the town before you drive up the Rocky. The ride to the peak of the mountain, is in one, inadequate word, astounding. I hadnt been told by the folks at the visitor center all the little details that came as a pleasant surprise. For one, there are sheer drops on some stretches of the road, also that it...
I am enjoying all the photos and notes thus far. What a fantastic journey! It is great to see all these beautiful places through your eyes! Talk about living vicariously. Stay well hydrated and take lots of breaks especially when the roads are monotonous or hot. Safety and good health to you!!
