Today's adventures began with Texas shaped waffles before sunrise. To say we didn't get the best night's sleep last night is quite an understatement. We finally gave up hope that either of us would fall back asleep somewhere around 5:30 this morning, and decided to head for Denver to see some friends on our way home.
So, a little change in plans from the original route (which was by no means planned meticulously) and off we went on our three-state tour!
The GPS has not always been taking us on major freeways, which has turned out to be quite pleasant. It's very interesting to drive through the small towns that you would normally pass by on major thoroughfares. My favorite town names of the day include Dimmit and Trinidad.
Today held a lot of great views and some anxiety in the form of crazy and heavy traffic in Colorado Springs and Denver respectively. Yet another reason I'm glad "the Garmin" seems to be taking us on the shortest, and not necessarily the fastest, routes which tends to bypass large cities and the traffic that comes with them.
