After hiking up to Delicate Arch (Arches National Park) yesterday, we hit the road again and drove all the way to Fort Lupton, Colorado. Driving through the Rocky Mountains was amazing! I took this photo while driving through a tunnel that literally took us through one of the peaks. The temperature dropped almost 50 degrees between Moab, Utah and Georgetown, Colorado, and there we were in our shorts and t-shirts last night when we stopped for a dip in the hot springs. It was really an amazing day. We went from rocky, desert arches to snow-capped mountains; both spectacular in very different ways. Nature never ceases to amaze and inspire me.
We had a tasty dinner at a local eatery in Fort Lupton when we arrived, and then we took our tired, weary selves to the hotel. At least we had a little time to relax before sleeping.
Now we're driving through flat, BORING Nebraska. The Eastern part of Colorado was flat and boring too...who knew? Right this moment I need to stop writing because I need at least one hand to hold my nose!! Damn cattle farms...er, ummm...I mean...I love nature.
Peace out.
