Yup, that just sealed the deal. I'm moving to the Rockies when I graduate. End of story.

 

Amazing pictures.

Great Pics! I'm heading to Steamboat Springs for a week in Early November. I also have a buddy who lives in Boulder so I may head over there for a few days as well.

 

How many miles you got on that ol' girl now?

Great pics, Michael! Looks like a cool trip, I definitely want to cruise through there when I move the hell out of here

[Darkanion]

Thanks, guys!

 

Tobias : She'll be rolling over 19k, here soon. Another trip back & forth should do the trick.

 

Yeah, it was a nice trip... and a "cool" trip, relative to Texas. The only rough part of the trip was getting to Arizona, not having a reservation, not being able to find a room, and having to drive another 350 miles to find a room (after already having drove over 650+ to get to AZ). That's how I ended up in CO. Otherwise, it would've been a Mesa / Grand Canyon / wherever-else-in-AZ trip.

 

I like Colorado, though... and I dang sure know for next time to not rely on small towns to have rooms, if I go to AZ again during the summer!

Now why on earth would anybody go there in the freaking summer?

My plan was to go to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and roam around on the Forest Rds and see what most tourists don't see... That didn't work out so well.

Thanks! It was the least I could do, after some of the pics others have shared on here. You've posted some nice ones yourself, as I recall.

Great pics and sounds like a cool trip. Oh, and you can never go wrong hitting a Texas taco stand. Just watch out for our local liquid fire in a bottle salsa. It's a little "different" than the salsa sold elsewhere.

Yeah - They had some 'green sauce' that didn't look like all that much. But, it had more of a kick to it than I had expected. It was all good, though. I liked the "beef stew" the best, though. I was expecting a bowl of soup. Nope! They took a big laddle of soup, drained off some of the juice, and poured it in a tortilla and wrapped it up. It was a little runny, but that was some goooood eatin'!
