The diverse landscape in the United States never ceases to amaze me. One day I am surrounded by green, fragrant pine trees with rugged, majestic mountains and the next day there are no trees, no distinguishable scent. Yet the air is crisp and fresh. There’s rock, rock in all directions…

Day two’s original destination was to be the Cliff Dwellings at Mesa Verde National Park. The drive is very scenic as we travel through a very pretty part of Colorado and cross the Continental Divide. From the Great Sand Dunes to Mesa Verde should take about four hours. After the…

By 8:00 a.m. we’re ready to hit the road. A quick stop at the Sand Dunes picnic area for some morning photos of the dunes and we’ll be back on the road heading west. I really would’ve liked more time here at the Great Sand Dunes National Park, but Mother…

We finally hit the road. We’re about three weeks behind our originally planned departure date, but hey better late than never. The weather could present some problems necessitating the need to be very flexible in our plans. Our first day on the road, we opt for an easy two-hour drive. …

It’s Fall !!! Colorado has already received snow at the higher elevations, but those of us at lower elevations are enjoying gorgeous weather and beautiful colors.

Time to fly back to Denver. I could use a little rest and relaxation…. time to recover after weeks of travel and seminars. What a whirlwind, exhausting, but fun month and a half.
