2021 Fall Trip - Day 31 - 9/23/2021

Thursday, Sept. 23, 2021 - The first of several Long Days - down to Colorado Springs, then east into Kansas - 455 miles:

Heading down toward Denver at 9:10 - rush hour was ok:
We reached the Garden of the Gods Visitor Center at 10:22
and did the road-trip through it from 10:30 to 11:
Since the rocks are oriented north-south, if you drove through in the late-afternoon, you would get a totally different experience.

Mailed postcards down in Colorado Springs (West End Station):
And had lunch with niece Mimi:
Eventually up onto I-70 East:
Which took us into Kansas:
Checked into the Super 8, Hays, Kansas:
Thank you God for this wonderful adventure day with my Wonderful Wife! (another Big Milage Day tomorrow)

Music for today:

Madonna - The Immaculate Collection, 1990


Dead and Company - 2019/07/06 Boulder, CO, 2019

What else are you going to listen to when you're driving through Colorado, past Boulder up there in the mountains!

Donald Fagen - Sunken Condos, 2012


Donna Summer - The Journey (2 cds), 2003


Drive-By Truckers - Live From Austin, TX, 2009


Elton John - A Single Man, 1978
