Across Colorado

2008 West--35th Anniversary, Colorado, Road Trip, States

We took our time leaving the luxury of our room at the Doubletree. From there we headed west across Colorado via I-70. We took a little side trip to Breckenridge to visit the delightful vacation home of friends Martha and Rick. They were not there but not we definitely can’t wait for a chance to visit with them in Colorado. The the trip across the state was a feast for the eyes. We saw snow covered mountains, a few skiers on the slopes, autumn foliage, badlands, cliff formations, and a beautiful sunset. We went through so many long tunnels we started singing “She’ll Be Coming Through the Mountain”Âť. We ended the day in Moab, Utah with plans to visit more national parks tomorrow.

    I trust that you honked the horn in each one of the tunnels. 🙂

London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
