Let 12 takes us Branson, MO to which Myra and I have never been. Had to see what all the fuss was about. After a quick 3 1/2 hour drive to Branson, we spent another 45 minutes making the 4 mile drive from the highway. This city is packed with folks. My description after a …
Today we enjoyed our last day in the KC area after 10 fast days visiting with Bob and Joani. Thanks to them for treating us to a fun filled week of food and fest. KC has some great restaurants among them Minskys Pizza, JJs, Story, Tavern in the East, and our favorite Oceans Prime. Myra …
After a couple of days in KC, the weather has relented somewhat and we have forecasted highs in the 84 with the possibility of some T- Storms. It has been a nice couple of days thus far. We got to experience some of KC BBQ at Jack Stacks for lunch, twas good but perhaps not …
Took a picture of Kansas on the road-scenic. Just kidding but it does make a good comparison to the Plains are of Texas just longer and greener. We got an early start today in record tear down time. Awoke at 8:05 and were on the road at 8:40am. We made it to Merriam, KS at …
Today we head out to Oakley, KS for a stopover trip on the way to KC. Things are not starting out like we hoped. Apparently, there is an issue with the sites septic system and when I opened my black tank last night, it would not drain into the the septic tank. I shut off …
We left this morning about 10:30 on Leg 9 of your trip which took us to Aurora, CO at Cherry Creek State Park. Very nice park by the lake but the cool mountain temperatures will be missed. 89 right now and probably wont be any lower for the next parts of our trip. We hit …
It has been a couple of days since we posted because it has been pretty much more of the same. Friday we spent most of the afternoon tending to a leaky sink. Had to make a couple of trips into Granby to get what I need but I think we have it resolved. Friday night …
Today we re-explored the Rocky Mountain NP getting up at 5:00am with the intent of arriving at Bear Lake at our reservation time of 6:00am. We saw a ton of wildlife (figuratively and comparatively) on the way there. Although it was pretty dark still, I did manage to capture a couple of shots I was …
Our first full day at the Rocky Mountain National Park and we did a quick 100 mine reconnoiter trip to see what it was all about. We took off about 6:00am and returned 4.5 hours later. Some of the snapshots have been posted on this page. I am planning a sunrise trip sometime this week …
