On Saturday, we went to the Colorado Wine
Festival. They had many of the wines from all over Colorado at the
festival; I could not sample them all (although I tried!) Lots of great
wines to be had. Sasha did not drink, but still managed to have some
fun:
 |
Found this old car at one of the wine tasting
booths |
 |
He's become the gear head |
 |
Our Site and clear skies on September 17th. We
went for a ride (3.5 hours) on Sunday morning and afternoon. The
weather was perfect. And not a cloud in the sky. |
 |
Again our views from the campsite. You may
notice the highway in the far background. |
 |
Here I am on my "Little Donkey" |
 |
Here I am a little closer with great views |
 |
Salt Creek and the overlook |
 |
Our Toys |
 |
My Boy Toy - excuse me - my Man and his toy |
 |
The Expert and the Colorado River - We are about
2,000 feet above the Colorado River. |
 |
Closer view of the Colorado River and Sasha with
his helmet on. |
 |
Me and the Colorado River at a really cool
overlook. |
 |
We were playing with the timer from my camera
and managed to get this picture. |
|
Sasha
found this stone chair on an overlook that was not on the map.
The road was not very easy so one could imagine someone sitting
here with the fire at their feet looking out to the Colorado
River and watching the boat go past. |
 |
This is the view you see from the chair And
below, I am going up a semi-steep hill and Sasha took this when
he was at the top. I was in 4-wheel Drive, high. I definitely
have more confidence on this rig than on a motorcycle. Slowing
down is pretty easy, hardly have to use the brake, just stop
pushing the button. |

Once we came back from the ride, we read for a
while, then Sasha went out with my Little Donkey and found some
wood, which he brought back. We will have a nice fire tomorrow
night. Took outdoor showers today, have to take them a little
earlier, I was cold as the sun had gone down. We had a nice
dinner and we will go for a ride tomorrow, then go to a Dinosaur
"Walk through Time" hike that is located right across I-70.
Good night all and we will have more pictures tomorrow. |
Check out the Next Day, Rides and Trails - really taking ATV and
motorbike for a ride.
