Wednesday 8-7

Just traveling last couple of days, we are in Elkhart, IN and headed out today to visit a couple of RV surplus stores. Tomorrow we will be at the manufactures service dept. to have some warranty and upgrade work done. Should be home early evening, we are ready to be home and see our family and friends after 30 days away. We had a great journey.

Friday 8-2

We left Colorado Springs this morning at about 6,800 feet and are now in Kansas at 3,050 feet, flat and a hot 90 degrees.

 

Looking for Dorothy and Aunty Em but only found “Wild Bill Cody” didn’t know he was that big!

 

 

 

 

 

Thursday 8-1

We went to the Garden of The Gods yesterday afternoon and tried a trail but it was too hot. This morning we went back to see it in different light and hike when it was cooler, good choice!

 

 

A very narrow entrance

 

 

Kissing Camels

 

 This was a very different experience, very nice with mostly paved walkways and lots of people both days. We would do it again for sure and it is free.

 

 

 Black-Billed Magpie 

 

 The trading post had the usual tourist things and a very nice section of local art which was an interesting tour in its self. We had lunch on the terrace and purchased a vase made from Colorado Aspen by a Native American.

 

 

This was our last official day of vacation touring; now we make the 1,300 mile trip home.
