The day started early in Salina with doughnuts made right in town. Despite how delicious these were, the coffee was sadly very midwestern.
Rambling through the 450 miles with some shared tunes in the van.
The perennial favorite activity at rest stops: Tree tag. On your marks get set . . .
GO!
Two parents happy about the fact that their children will still play tree tag.
We stopped in Burlington, Colorado at the Kit Carson County Carousel. It is 107 years old and fully restored to its 1905 state.
On the way up to our friends' house in Palmer Lake, we spotted this lovely munching grass in someone's front yard.
Finally, with friends. Stacey and Rob right outside the family's front door. What a view!
Then, inside their modern-styled house. This is the type of house that Rob and I would love to build someday, in the mountains.
Tomorrow, off to Garden of the Gods, Pike's Peak, and rock climbing.
Please say Hi to Erik and Stacey for us.
ReplyDeleteWhoops, Eric, not Erik. I knew that didn't look right.
ReplyDeleteLove the carousel! So much fun when there is a giraffe to choose!
