Rocky Mountain High

About two weeks ago, when Wichita was on day 20 or so of 100-plus degrees and we were getting tired of pushing mowers over crispy grass, my husband decided we needed to go to Colorado.

When Dave gets an idea, he makes it happen.

So, last Thursday we had the Harley loaded in the back of the truck (we decided we would really like AC on the trek through western Kansas) and we headed for Salida, Colorado.

We were nearly there when we saw there had been an accident.

This wrecker truck was attempting to pull out

Whoops! To the left of the rafts is an old school bus that overturned on this river access road while transporting a load of rafters.

the bus that is upside down. It had been transporting people to the river and pulling the trailer of rafts. Some people told us that out of the 50 or so people on the bus, only 6 needed to go to the hospital, and it didn't seem that anyone was seriously hurt.

 

So, we snapped a few pictures and continued on our journey. We had lots of adventures, so be sure to check back every day this week for a new installment!
