I-70 What A Ride

Thursday was an off day. It was 750 miles from Las Vegas to Denver, we took our time driving through Utah and into Colorado. Ana was very impressed with this area of our country, she has never been out west.



We actually hit the area during a cool front. Usually the temps are in 100 to 110 this time of the year, but the highest temps we felt was 85 with very low humidity.
The entire time we were out west we did not sweat a single time.
Good stuff.



Stopped and got a very good hotel room in Eagle Colorado. About 150 miles short of Denver, it is in the Rockies. The aspen trees were in full bloom and some of the mountainsides were all yellow. Very nice, an extra bonus for our trip.



After a good nights rest we drove into Denver and got our hotel room. We were very excited to get a glimpse of and see a show at the world famous Red Rocks Theater.
We decided to see this show from the very back and get the full view of Denver skyline, all the outer towns, and the day after harvest moon rise over the stage.
I took my spot on a wall with a rail to hold onto and I stood 7 feet above the crowd.
My own personal space.
Very cool lookout spot.
