Travel the USA

After the country re-opened after Covid-19, we are
"On the Road Again."
Please enjoy the 'armchair travels' and feel free to make comments.

In September of 2019, we made the 'epic' trip to the east coast for the first birthday of our grandson Evan.
Since Evan's birthday is in September, we decided to join a 29 day RV Caravan for the New England fall color. The tour starts in Maine and ends in Niagara Falls. All told, we did about 12,000 miles with the new truck and trailer.

Delights of small mountain towns in Colorado

Buena Vista 

One of our favorites-- Cottonwood Hot Springs

 Natural stone pools of various temperatures-
a bit of a 'hippi' atmosphere.

Kinda rustic!


They offer a "Cold Plunge"


but we will just enjoy the river from here!



Buena Vista Rock and Gem Show
This one is the largest outdoor show in Colorado.
Lots of interesting things.

He was very proud of this Dragon Scale Calcite stone.
I guess this is the latest craze for unique rocks.
He said this would be about $3500
(I looked on Etsy and they have one for $10,000)



One of my current favorite stone is the Labradorite.
We found some nice pieces for a necklace.


Tomorrow we head to the small town of Salida.
