Colorado – It’s been a Looooong Road Baby!

We’re here and we like it!

When I think of Colorado I always think of The Rocky Mountains.  Our first 200 Colorado miles, on  I 70,  were Prairie,  flat, flat, flat!

Natural gas drilling sites were added to the scenery.

The ever changing terrain was amazing.

It started becoming colorful!  The trees started getting bigger!

Our first PEEK at the Rocky Mountains.  It was a very hazy day.  If you look VERY closely  you can see the snow covered peaks.

The temperature went from 103 degrees in Oakley, Kansas,  to 83 degrees in Aurora, Colorado (about 250 miles west).

We are settled in for the next three days at  Cherry Creek State Park ($22 a night full hook up 50 amp).   We will not be putting on any miles  🙂    The park and campground are beautiful.   It has all the most common campground amenities like hiking,  biking,  swimming.   Add a Model Airplane Airfield,  Shooting Sports Center,  horseback riding  and an off leash dog park that is over 100 acres to the list and we will have plenty to do 🙂
