Taking a break in Denver



We left this morning at 10:30AM. The late start was because we only had 150 miles to get to Denver. About an hour from Denver we had a severe weather forcast. It was easy to tell that a storm was coming by looking at the sky. We went to a gas station to wait out the storm. The good news was that it went northeast and missed us but if we would have continued, we would have been in it dealing with strong winds and hail. It was well worth the 45 minute wait.

We arrived in Aurora and went to see our daughter-in-law and son. Rose & Jim went with us but they got a call from some friends in the area so they left to go and spend the night with their friends. We are all having the first home cooked meal in almost 6 weeks. Yum! Tomorrow it is on to Kansas. Since we have the use of a garage, Ray is changing the oil in our car and doing some other routine maintenance.

  1. Looks like you folks are making good progress since we saw you in Cache Creek (BC).

    If you'd like here's a photograph of our son, Elijah, in one of your Model As at that log hotel.

    Hope the rest of your trip continues to go well. What a great adventure! Thanks for being so nice to our boys. They sure loved seeing your cars.
