First small road trip of the season and its on Harley's Million Mile Monday. This ride was for Olivia and Mom to spend some one on one time together. I think I succeeded in my endeavour. Our trip was to be about 230 miles and take us through some of the prettiest scenery that Colorado has to offer. I wanted us to experience mountains, valleys and rivers all in the same day. How exciting to get to see this with my daughter.
A friend coming to visit?...
Yep! Here he comes...
In Salida we stopped at a local restaurant, The Boathouse, that served good food and was located on the Arkansas River. Olivia watched as this kayaker started his run by the restaurant and then...
Well he lost it. Fortunately we weren't the only ones to see him flip and we did hear that he was able to right himself just beyond our sight.
Skyline Drive outside Canon City. The road is one way and way up. So if your afraid of heights its not suggested that you go.
First stop was the Visitor Center for Pike National Forest on the west side of the forest.
The view from here is spectacular! You can see the valley and the mountains that ring it.
With the Collegiate Peaks in the background I had to stop and get a picture of her.
