Colorado City, CO

First four pics are from on the road today.  We went from rolling green hills to brown scrub brush.  The white rock was very pretty and really stood out along the highway. The monument is just below Pikes Peak in the pic with an Air Force base behind the fence.  Many planes and parachutists in the air.

We did see something we had never seen today--a dead snake on the side of the road.  It was belly up so don't know what kind but it was big.  O had the hebbie jeebies for a bit.

These are the latest kampground pics.  Really nice place.  Mini golf and fitness room are not usual.  KOA's all have little Kabins for rent.  Just one room with bunks and a microwave but a nice option.

The beginning of cacti area and juniper trees (gin anyone?).

Sunset after an afternoon shower.

Just a couple observations, Colorado is full of bikers.  Everywhere we have gone there have been people pedaling, even up the mountain roads.  Only place where recycling has been an option and our campground in the Rockies had dual flush toilets. It is so good to be able to walk around and not gasp for air.  We are ready for some flat lands. We drove 3610 miles West and are now officially on our way home.  We are headed South.  Didn't bother to unhook the truck, only staying overnight.  On to Las Vegas, NM.  See you there.
