The warm temperatures and strongs winds today created the perfect conditions for a fire and that’s exactly what happened up near Evergreen. The amount of smoke West of Denver was extremely dense and I just hope it gets put out soon!

Gold Canyon
Early this morning I drove into Eldorado Canyon to see how the Autumn colors were fairing. The colors were pretty good compared to the last few years and luckily the ever present wind in the canyon didn’t down all the leaves yet. Taking a few photos I decided to come back in the afternoon, when the sun would be illuminating …
Evening Falls
A few hours after crossing the Colorado border we arrived at the state park only to find that the campground was booked solid. Seeing it was Monday I was quite surprised but we decided to check out the falls for a few hours anyway. For this late in the season the waterfalls were moving pretty good and the late afternoon …

Quick Paint Mines
Having the itch to get out today my friends and I ventured out to Paint Mines Interpretive Park just outside Calhan, CO.

Overall not a bad …

Taos Pueblo
Once I crossed into New Mexico I decided to venture down to the Taos Pueblo. I visited there back in Feb. and I wanted to see it during the summer. The people were once again really down to earth and I spent quite a few hours just talking with them.

Sand Dune Evening

Upon arriving the winds were rather strong just setting up the tent alone was an ordeal. The family that had the campsite next to me were extremely nice and even invited …
Mini trip
So after reading most of the weekend I decided it was time to get out on the open road. My family joined me and we just started going South on I-25. While in Castlerock I saw the turnoff for hwy86 and took it. After going through Elizabeth we finally ended up at Kiowa. We stopped at a local thrift store …
Sunday Afternoon
My parents and I decided to take a short little drive to Plainview today. We were hoping the flowers would be coming out a little more but it was still a beautiful day to be out!
