Colorado Farewell

Hello Family & Friends,
We have been packing in last minute activities before we leave Colorado and head back to Arizona.  We have less than a week and on Friday 9/20, we are starting the process of packing the RV for travel which takes about 3 days of fun!!! (NOT)

But we headed up the mountain to Big Meadows Lake and I didn't take too many pictures but did see a wonderful waterfall with a walk bridge over it.  We didn't stop to hike since we were winding down our day but I did snap a couple of pictures.



We headed up the mountain near Seitz Creek area to prospect in the drywashes.  We had been looking at this rock outcropping trying to tell if it was a rock between the 2 big stones or a tree/bush.  We finally decided today that it is a rock!

Far away

Closer view, what do you think???  Little tree to the left and what is between the 2 big stones?

It is a rock!  Looks like a couple of people visiting? or maybe a couple of gorillas duking it out??
You guess!!!

The day was absolutely beautiful compared to a couple of days earlier when it rained on us twice -- makes the prospecting a little difficult to avoid the drops!

This is a different rock outcropping -- they just seem to set on the mountain side, ready to roll down when something sets them off!

Beautiful blue skies and lots of clouds!

I love the variety of trees we see, from firs, to pinyon pines to scrub brush --- we are still very green and lots of vegetation.



This is Darrel working the drywasher -- not much shade but the temps were in the upper 70's!

We are expecting rain over the next few days before we leave on Wed., Sept. 25 so I am not sure what we will be doing in between packing -- I am going to miss Colorado as I always do when we head out but am looking forward to our visit to Kansas, Iowa and Oklahoma to see family and friends.

I thank everyone for reading this blog and keeping in touch with phone calls and texts.... please let us know how you are doing even though we are long distance.  We think of everyone often and consider you our on the road support network!

Take care and send blessings from the road,

Love,
Susan & Darrel
