Craig to Dinosaur National Monument in Colorado
Craig, Colorado has changed their tree trunks into wonderful art! Dinosaur National Monument is where the Yampa and Green rivers come together on their way to the Colorado River. The Yampa headwaters are in the Flat Tops near Phippsburg, Colorado. The Colorado originates in the upper elevations of Rocky Mountain National Park above the town of Grand Lake.

Congradulations to Crystal and Forrest for finding over two-thirds of the "wedding bells" we hid at Songbird Ranch while they were away on their honeymonn. But, c'mon kids, never, ever, leave us alone with your stuff, 'cause this is the kind of thing that will happen!

Grand Lake was a great spot to stop for a late breakfast at the little park on the lake. Then we continued our drive and ran into a bit of rain before we arrived at Songbird Ranch. Fish was so excited to see us. We threw the ball about a hundred times for him and gave him a big drink from the hose. Will was practicing his guitar picking and kept hearing this tap-tap-tap.

He landed on a telephone pole to get his barrings before flying off. Forrest arrived home first; Crystal has a long drive from Eagle and gets home about 6:30pm.

Four Valley Hay--Danger lurks

This photographing can be dangerose business! (Tried looking him up and these come closest to what I think I saw) Today is a Good Day to Drive! Van-Go Sent from my iPhone
