Colorado: Are we there yet?
We rolled into Denver about three hours behind schedule last night and arrived at our host's house apologetic and bearing wine. Since the sun while we were still in the no-man's-land of eastern Colorado, we didn't see the mountains until this morning. We spent a few hours in Denver taking care of details (buying forgotten toiletries at Target and checking email at a coffee shop). Eventually, we turned west and headed out of town.
The drive across Colorad included a quick stop for ice cream in Vail (few places scream "Money!"like Vail) and actually, other than a lot of pretty scenery, not much else.

Eastern Colorado sunset.
Approaching the Rockies.
I didn't manage to get a picture of Colorado's welcome sign when we crossed the border, so this will have to do.
More mountains. And, as a bonus, you can also see the texture of my car's dashboard reflected in the windshield.
