Colorful Colorado bound

[KCSA75]

We're heading out this weekend and plan is to be gone for two weeks. I've seen everything there is to see in Kansas and eastern Colorado along I-70 multiple times so we're going to follow Charles Kuralt's lead -- take back roads and see what we can find.

First stop will be Glen Elder State Park near Beloit, Ks. for a couple days. Waconda Lake is the largest in the state and supposed to be great fishing. On top of that, the World's Largest Ball of Twine is just down the road.

We'll probably make one more stop somewhere on the high plains of western Kansas or eastern Colorado before checking in to Cherry Creek State Park near Denver, where our youngest son and 2-year-old grandson live.

After four nights in Denver we're heading north and west for a week near Red Feather Lakes, Co. We spent four days at Red Feather in 2016 and can't wait to go back. Life is pretty slow there and the scenery is incredible.
