Day 3 - Rocky Mountain National Park

Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas, Kansas

We aren't in Kansas anymore...... Thank Heavens!

Neat little town in the foothills of Rocky Mountain National Park.

Yum, our first camp meal.

Day 2 - Gateway Arch

Missouri....... Again
Gateway Arch, St Louis

Tram car to the top of the Arch

Busch Stadium from the top

Yea, Kansas

Look who's driving! Actually that was quite weird,
don't think we ever rode in the back seat.
Best of all, they were fighting over who was going to drive.
I think Kyle is our new rough weather driver, every time he got behind
the wheel the flood gates opened and the storms rolled in.
That usually happened to me!
They were some incredible storms.

Kansas state song should be, I can see for miles ....... Thank you Carol!
Windmills (or windmeals, Ken) as far as the eye can see.

Sunset day 2, we're still in Kansas, will it ever end?
Found the best hotel, Comfort Inn, Colby, KA, pool and hot tub open 24 hours!
Yea! Had it all to ourselves.
No blog tomorrow, camping Rocky Mountain National Park.
Tune in Thursday for days 3 & 4.

Day 1 - Driving

First day of driving done, best day in the car ever, kids were very entertaining, only wish there were more of them with us. We made it to St Louis, got a glimpse of the Arch and Busch Stadium, only to find there wasn't a room to be had in the city. The Cardinals are home for an 8 game run. Back track, found a room ... tomorrow, into the Arch we're going, then on to Colorado.

So this is supposed to be the Indiana sign, really bad sign placement.
It's back there, really it is, we saw it.

Whole lotta sleepin' going on!

Lucas Oil Stadium, Colts Home Field

First Arch View, can't wait to go inside!

The Missouri sign.
Good thing we had to backtrack, I need a better photo!

What?? We're leaving tomorrow?

Where did the time go? I don't know if my practice of packing the day before a trip in a half an hour is going to work for this one. 4 weeks is a really long time to be gone, specially when we're tent camping some of it. Well, if we forget it, we can always buy it, so no stress there...... yea right!
