Friday, April 10, 2009Old Miss Saw lots of trains hauling coal and this time is was trucks loading it onto barges that were pushing it upstream. The water was up and muddy after last nights storms so it was pushing hard, too. posted @ 03:59 PM PST [link] Wednesday, April 8, 2009Still Kansas Okay Kansas, I apologize! It was eastern Colorado and really western Kansas that is void of trees. Over here on this side there's lots of them. We also saw a large grove of windmills. it was great but unfortunately my pictures didn't turn out. If you look closely you can see an oil pump waay in the back of this field there next to the trees. but it shows the flat that most of the part of Kansas we went though is. We're at my neice's this evening and enjoying the visit.  posted @ 06:12 PM PST [link] Tuesday, April 7, 2009We're in Dodge City Kansas tonight. We stopped by to visit this historical site, Old Fort Bent in Coloradoand we were just in time to join a passel of school children. Shortly after we arrived in Kansas but Kansas is difficult for a mountain girl to get a grip on. Contrary to what you may have heard, however, they do have trees. We saw several during today's journey.

We're camped in the Pueblo, Colorado KOA this evening. Now we get to plan the next stage of our trip. We might spend a day hiking trails. Cori is still wanting to know if we're there yet! posted @ 05:46 PM PST [link] |
