Friday morning the storm was over leaving 18" on the gound in Denver. Heading south on Friday morning, the ground was clear and dry within an hour. Even though it was in the 20's, the air didn't feel that cold to us.


Devils Head, heading south on I 25 out of Denver

Morning after the storm.

Pikes Peak

I guess my pics are out of order and I'm to tired to straighten them out.

Took a couple side trips on Route 66. I am amazed that all the run down, empty inns and resturants are just left there to rot in amoung places that are still open.

to NM. Everything is brown , flat and wide open. It got down to 14degrees here last night!! I thought we left the cold behind! What's so different is that it doesn't feel cold. I guess it must be the dry air. Even at 25 degrees in the morning you couldn't see your breath and I only wore a sweater and didn't even feel cold.

As we got into NM the mountains started to flatten out, notice the difference in the left from the right.

Saw some antelope in the plains of NM. These were close to the road, they were a little skittish but didn't run when we stopped. there's a buck out in the field just out of sight.

We didn't go thru too much of TX but boy is it flat!!

The difference between TX & NM is TX is greener in some places.

We are staying in Elk City, OK tonight. notice they are already decorated for Christmas. Either that or they never take down their decorations! BTW, it's halloween! and the temps got up to 77 today. My kind of weather!
