Made it from Ouray to Black Canyon Nat Park all flat roads until the canyon road Up and up 20 MPH gotta get more engine for Colorado --stayed up here in the high dessert for 3 nites --a mule deer show up every day--one of them hung out with a neighbor camper dog--very tame and protected in the park. Met a couple across from Sudbury Mass, Louise and Cliff Card--he was the chief at many schools-so at 82 they hiked down the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back up the next day --these guys are making the bucket list an adventure-- and refuse to get old-- reminded him to get those bearings on his wheels checked I could make a buck doing that for folks but would always do it for the fun of it-love meeting folks like that.So the Black Canyon is another beautiful carved out piece 48 miles long, billions of years ago or more--how do they figure that out?  Headed to Pine Creek the next day for a boat ride up the canyon  big party barge met lots of great folks and info where to go next.  Big projects done  long time ago to dam up the spring run off water to hold it back for the lower states in the summer for irrigation and drinking--Gotta say Colorado has so much diversity first up in the mountains waking up at 38 then back down at 60 in the high dessert. We could live here as so many other places. Live for the moment

M&M on the go
