Like most of these homesteads, there's not a whole lot of anything else around!
Craig CO had a Northwest Museum that I stopped and spent an hour or so at. Very nice with free admission...although there is a huge donations box sitting right behind the visitor register! I did meet a couple of desperados, Butch and Sundance...
and you had to be careful about the wildlife!
Lunch was at the Moose Cafe in Kemmerling CO. I had a prime seat with the moose head right over my table!
I overheard some of the locals talking about driving to Kansas City from here and described the drive as Boring...that's the direction I'm headed....hmmm.
The scenery improved as I climbed the mountains toward Denver. There were a number of areas where there was snow on the ground beside the road but all the roads were dry and clear.
I stopped for the usual fuel up about a half hour out of Denver in a little town of Georgetown CO. They had a nice visitor center and there was a Railroad Museum in town but I decided to keep driving. The town is right in between two mountains.
Tomorrow I will head into Kansas with Hays KS as the destination. Nothing special about Hays except that its about 5 hours from Denver. Route: https://goo.gl/maps/sVSnUQ75p4w
Butch and Sundance - cool... I liked the looks of Newman & Redford better... Hollywood! My mom and dad tried to keep day driving at 5 or so max too...
