Up, Up and Away Our first National Park.

Woke up to a chilly morning in Colorado. Three layers later, scarves and gloves in tow we headed for the Rocky Mountain National Park. First sign we came to said "Road Closed due to ICE" what a bummer. Headed to Estes Park to get our passport book stamped, low and behold the road was now open and safe for motorcycles. Hopefully the pictures will do the beauty justice. We weren't in Kansas anymore!!

  1. You are right, what beautiful country! It does look a little chilly. Of course my favorite pictures are the 3 with you two in them. They are all great pictures and you look like you are having a wonderful time! The one with you two riding along is just too neat. Hope you have another day of good weather. Take care and of course, be safe. Love you, Kathy
