Colorado
We did it ! And managed to glide thru the deadly tornado alley with only a few raindrops. Once we left our R&R in Alabama, we made tracks and did between 4-500+ miles each day. ( Memo to Dean and Diane: We had to maintain our reputation ! ) We saw ONE pronghorn antelope and a lot of cows. We followed our usual trail and stayed at familiar RV campgrounds. Aside from too much sitting, it was an uneventful crossing. And now, we will stop and smell the roses and gaze at the beautiful mountains for a few days before we head over the passes to Montrose once again.
Last night we met the kids at Ted's Mountain Grill. Ted Turner's vision of responsible and sustainable environmental programs and his passion to preserve the Bison have been recognized and his restaurants are a testament to do the right thing for the planet. So, even tho we ordered the delicious veggie burger, I approve of the menu of sustainable beef and bison and not the beef, pork and chicken from those violent and horrific factories. End of rant.....I almost got carried away for a minute.........

Sounds wonderful. Welcome back. You are so right about the horrific factories (CAFOs). They even make this carnivore squirm.
ReplyDeleteYou two are fast! Good job. Staying tuned.
ReplyDeleteI listened to an NPR podcast the other day while walking about how they raise pigs. Yuck! Make you never want to eat a pork chop again.
