Since we were not going west we suddenly had a lot more time to make it to the east coast in time for the foliage change.  We headed to Canon City where I had booked us a day of ziplines and white water rafting with the Royal Gorge Zip Line and Rafting Company.  This was…

We spent the next two days in Colorado Springs catching up on our chores.  We did homeschooling, laundry, and propane fill plus scheduled maintenance on Rover including oil change, transmission fluid flush and rear differential service.  We had intended to head west from Denver and go back to California for Olivia’s birthday but the Western…
