November 26 – December 1, 2014: We made it to Colorado!
The drive from Arches National Park in Utah took us up and over and through the mountains near Vail and Breckenridge, Colorado. In the higher elevations snow was covering the grass and cars. Thankfully, the roads were clear and our only obstacle was keeping Camper Dan moving. With steep roads (the highest elevation was over 11,000 feet) and a speed limit of 65 mph, we were being passed left and right. Camper Dan struggles to do more than 35 mph in those conditions. Slow and steady wins the race and we arrived in the late evening at our friends’ house.
Since then, we’ve had an amazing Thanksgiving meal and been grateful to spend time with fabulous friends.
