My time in CO

So, i have traveled about 800 miles in 2 days all over Colorado. I've met some forum members in person, seen some nice rigs, and have seen some amazing scenery!

This was yesterday:
TW meet & greet where I met @Sean266 and he hooked me up with some great beer...

Seans nice rig (I wanted to start pulling parts off his truck truck for my truck)

After the meet & greet it was time to explore. I honestly don't know where I ended up other than in the mountains....

and the snow i found

(I have a bunch more pics on my camera)

After meandering around CO mountains, I met up with @Thegr8punkin and hung out with him for a bit. For young "Millinial" he's pretty awesome. I got to see "Punkin"....no pics taken though.

This morning I started my day with a visit to Garden of the Gods (AFTER coffee of course).

I have a lot more pics on my camera....some amazing formations. I wish I wasn't hurt because walking that would have been SO MUCH BETTER!

From there I started my journey to Alma, but made a few stops on the way.

1st stop ruined my childhood thoughts....

Why? Just why? The North Pole isn't supposed to be in Colorado!!!!

Then I was off again and stopped at the Florissant Fossil Beds.

Continuing on....


and finally to Alma.....

Tiny little town....loved it! It only has the hwy going through it paved from what I saw. Everything else is dirt. I stopped at a little store and picked up some gifts for my girls. Store owner was a lovely lady with a very loving dog who greyed me at the door. I really liked it up there....a lot. I would love to love close to a small town like that (I want to own a small ranch....so can't live in a town with that). From there I went to Breckenridge and looked/wandered around. Didn't really take any pics....but it was really cool!

I've already started making a trip itinerary for when I can being my girls up here. They will love it!

 

Awesome Sauce!

 

looks like you had a great time.

 

Great pictures!! Glad you had fun l have been to Colorado 5 times on vacation and always enjoy it Estes Park is a cool town also whenever you're back out there. Can't wait to see the rest of your pictures.

 

Nice pictures. Glad your having fun.

 

I am! For the most part. It definitely could have been better. being limited on what you can do sucks monkey balls

I'll definitely check it out! On the list for when I bring my girls! We will be driving up and camping. No hotel stay next time!

 

Now that would be awesome, camping in CO.

 

Right? I think it would rock!

 

Sure would! One day I’ll bring my TT down there.

 

Awesome pics, glad you had a great time here. Hope to catch you next time.

 

Definitely! Colorado will be a place I strive to visit regularly! I loved it here!

 

Awesome looks like you had great time. And Those are some nice pics

 

Thanks

Gonna hit up @ToyTec Lifts first thing in the morning and if @TundraTss can....might grab some food with him before heading out....not sure what else. I have to be at the airport @1430

 

Thank you

 

That's super cool. Glad to hear your having a great trip

 

The pic of the tracks in the snow? @Almaboy was there?

 

No Alma wasnt there. He's not in state this weekend. Those tracks crack me up though.

 

Glad you got to meet our resident oddballs lol. Some interesting characters up here!

 

I did and i enjoyed my time here

 

Al-Mart is a great little general store. Definitely a local appreciation. Glad you made it up there. It's a gem hidden away from riff raff

 

I didn't go in there but i went to the Sheepherder....she was extremely nice and her pup was a great greeter!! I will definitely be getting more things from her in the future! i just hope my girls love what i gotvthem

 

Ummmm did you just say it keeps out the riff raff?

 

Great pics. Looks like a great trip too! I really need to make it to the Rockies before I leave this celestial ball. It seems awesome

Safe travels

 

Glad you got out, explored and had a good time.

 

Giggity.

 

I'm glad you had a good trip. Colorado is awesome! Hopefully we can have the whole crew meet up next time.

 

That would be awesome!

 

Looks fun only time I've been to Colorado was to pick up my pup and drive thru to visit the capital

 

Great pictures! Looks like you are having a great time. I need to get back up there, have not been since high school, I tore both ACL's while I was there. Will wait for my boys to get older before we go. Your girls should love it there.
