old green truck

I was hoping to find a wreck/relic in the woods someplace in CO. .. this one showed up along a dirt road in Park City CO in Mosquito Gulch. EDIT --- it is a 1939 Chevy.

As I did previously, I colorized it, put a "soft" filter on it, and then added a small bit of vignette

Getting hosed on July 4th

We spent July 4th in Breckenridge at the parade and stayed for all the other events. We thought one event was going to be a water balloon "fight" among the kids, well we got that wrong! We certainly didn't know what was coming, so, when kids started to scream when the Fire Department tower truck started to come up the street, we joined the crowd. Kids started to collect and then the tower ladder started to extend -- more excitement. We were thinking, "What is going on?" or "What is going to happen?" Then they turned the water on!! from underneath the tower bucket. Then the craziness started.... and ultimately Alicia joined in.

Well, the ski area is closed, so that rules out that idea. Let's head for some sun. That means heading down in altitude, and someplace. The place that we chose was Colorado National Monument, just outside of Grand Junction, a 3-hour drive, and a comfortable 65F. We had never been there before, so it was to be something new. It was something new, as well as being something old. It looked familiar. The Colorado National Monument lies within the Colorado Plateau (  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorado_Plateau   ) which is a geologic formation that spans over 4 states: CO, AZ, UT, and NM. The rock strata of the CNM is the same as that of many other parks: Grand Canyon, Zion, Arches, and many more.  So, when we were looking at its features, we saw a lot that looked like other places that we have been to. So, it was new and it was "old" at the same time. The dominant strata of the CNM were Wingate, Kayenta and Estrada and on the Wingate was a lot of "desert vanish&

Back in Maine

So, we actually did depart Breckenridge and headed east ... with a small tear in the eye. We are now in our new place overlooking the golf course -- no chance of being washed away! We really enjoyed Breck and our visitors. We liked the hiking above 12,000 feet, fishing all over the place, going to Breck events, feeling the vibe of the local scene, and more I have to find the best photo that sums up the trip -- that will be the last post and the sign-off!
