Road Home

The past five days in Fort Collins has been fun, but its time to hit the road and head home. Today we are headed to Trinidad Lake State Park. From there we are headed to the Petrified Forest and then back to the Grand Canyon for a night (we might be a little obsessed).

Ignoring the two days where it dropped from the 80s to the 40s, Colorado was really beautiful. I'm a little sad that we didn't get to see Rocky Mountain park, but its just another excuse to come back up! (I'm thinking once I finish summer school.) We got to drive through all of the ski towns and got to experience the car losing power thanks to the lack of oxygen in this state. The important part is Kevin got to spend time with his family, and we both had a great time.

There aren't any national parks between Colorado and Arizona via New Mexico except for ones that put us hours out of our way. So our park pass won't work tonight :(. Thankfully the entrance fee is only seven dollars so its not a huge loss. (Har har.) So now we are on the road once again for about four hours. Hopefully we will have plenty of time to hike or swim once we get there.

More later!
