So far the pattern has been that any drive we take will end up taking another 25% of what it should normally take. If there’s something that we feel merits a detour, we usually take it. The sun was just now setting and we saw a sign for a lookout so we followed the dirt road for a mile out to a 15-minute walking trail. In order to make the stop a little speedier we turned the walking trail into a jogging trail. But the 9,666 ft. altitude did not look favorably on that decision. Once our heartbeats slowed we were able to enjoy the sun making shadows of pine trees as it hid behind the Rockies. On our hike back down Sammy had me stop to notice the sound: silence. No cars, no bugs, no wind, no nothing.
(We tried to post some pictures from the last few days but it didn’t work for some reason. They’ll come soon though!)
So… I am glad you are enjoying your detours… there will be a time in life when you can’t always take them. Texas misses you guys but it is good the rest of the world will get to experience the two tall travelers.
ps… I am glad ya’ll didn’t blow up.
Hey fellas. You have told us, I think, a million times, but neither Daniel nor I can remember when you are heading our direction.
Hope your travels are glorious.
Hey guys! The pictures are awesome!!!!!! Evolution sucks. This beauty can´t be coincedence.
The girls loved your videos. After watching them at least 7 times I pretended the computer broke down or we would still be watching!
