Colorado Rocky Mountain High

We stayed in the only motel room we could find last night -- a dingy, dirty, smoking-room... and it was late, and we were exhausted.

Today we left Idaho and drove across Utah. Much desert-y open space, but also magnificent rock formations and hills... and we came across a field that was painted with wildflowers in every color. There were deep purple, lavender, light blue, yellow, pink, orange, and white. A picture would never do it justice.

Now we're in Colorado, in a nice hotel at the base of the Rockies. We stopped early tonight. Our hotel is clean and pretty. We've gone for a swim and a hottub. I'm enjoying the free ethernet connection. We're deciding where to go for dinner, and we'll have a drink at the hotel bar before bed. Life is good tonight in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.
