  • The beginning of our 12 day vacation in Colorado! Day one started out as only a travel day getting there which was delayed a bit by our flight being delayed out of Pensacola, but we managed to get to Denver the next morning and start our new journey!
    We stopped off in Golden to to have a beer and see Clear Creek, then drove up to Lookout Mountain Park to see the overlook of Golden and Denver.
    Afterwards we drove up to Central City for our stay for the night.

    There were many Black Bear in the late 60's near the top of Lookout Mountain but population has since, driven most of them out of the area. It was neat to ascend the mountain and watch them roaming around eating wild berries and watch them watching me.

      If it's not car alarms or mowers, it's going to be people loudly talking about random things. I was at some of the most beautiful and peaceful places to see and when trying to capture some video to share I had people around me talking so loudly about their personal shit back home I was getting annoyed.

    Mt. Evans. Went there. At the time we went it was the highest PAVED road in the USA...14,265' above sea level. When we were there it was 102F in Denver, when we got to the top of Mt. Evans we had snow below us, and it was 48F. I'm one of the few people that gets the round "marathon" type sticker that reads 14,265...Looks like you two had a blast. I'm closing in on retirement, and I think I want to start going back to some of these places.
    Halfway up Mt. Evan's there used to be a restaurant. It was AMAZING. Had some of the best buffalo burgers there (half pounders, and they were CHEAPER (35~40 years ago), than beef burgers were.

    Shame on you Adam, you didn't visit the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, still you can't please all the people all of the time!!! With its mining heritage Colorado had many 3foot narrow gauge railroads including of course, two trailroads which are now tourist heritage lines, the Durango & Silverton and the Cumbres and Toltec. Its almost as good as Wales with its profusion of two foot gauge railways!
