Gentlemen ......Start your Toads.

Well its evening Tuesday, the 8th.....and I am READY.....everything is in order...I think...meds. are up to date...Doctors cleared, grass mowed, Casita washed and waxed,  The Xterra was packed this evening...this trip I've packed far less"stuff", hopefully I'm not leaving something important behind... camper is almost all packed, I've turned on the Frig, will run the A/C tomorrow...new tires on the Albino Armadillo, and 2 new ones on the Xterra...Hitch up tomorrow afternoon...and leave at "O dark Thirty" on Thursday....just in time for rush hour.....

Plan is to travel no more than 250 miles per day....we'll see how that plays out...the weather for the first two days is suppose to be rainy...hopefully that will give some relief  on the triple digit temps.  I will be kinda, sorta traveling Northwest towards Cheyenne  Mountain, Colorado.... they have a State Park there...will spend about 3 days and visit some Nephews and Friends in the Colorado Springs area.  From there its  meandering towards Crested Butte  and back to the Gunnison area,,,and then do the Million Dollar Highway and some "Fall Photo's"..

Next, its off to the Southwest..I'm looking at Canyonlands; Page and the  Slot Canyons(get some star shots)...Like what Jean of Borderbrae Images did...they really where magnificent; Monument Valley; and a little R&R at the Superstition Mountains....and whatever else I may "trip over"...as Yogi said...if you come to a fork in the road....take it..  :)

Sooo that's my "made in Jello" plan....Saddle Up ...Head'em up and move'em out...Horst sends
