Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, Colorado ~ Coolest Name for a National Park
Crew day means I get to take action shots of the riders on the road. Above we have Lisa, Jess, Laura from left to right.
Amanda, Reena, Nicole. Lisa, always happy to be on the road ;)
Gunnison: Named after John W. Gunnison, American military officer and explorer.
Lunch van: I should do a commercial for Chevy haha. Wayne N. Aspinall Storage Unit: that is the name of the body of water behind the sign. Storage Unit?
History lesson: the town of Sapinero looked to be a collection of nine buildings dating from the early 1900's...
Lunch stop: somewhere in the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park
I could't decide which one to use, so I put all three of them up. Some fascinating rock formations...
Our lodgings for the night, Gunnison Elementary.
What I have been living on for the past month, and will continue to live on for the following month. Only the Rattler is missing, I'll have to include him in a later photo op.

Overall, a relaxing and uneventful day for me and the crew. Currently, a number of us are at Mochas taking efficient advantage of their free and fast WiFi. Oh the joy of being connected :)
Tomorrow will be about 88 miles to Cotopaxi, CO. Looks to be a stiff climb in the middle of the route, but nothing we haven't seen before.

Here are some random pictures from my phone since I don't always remember to bring my camera along.
Abramoff and Jessie at Gastropub in Pasadena. Prayers go out to the Burgers family as they are going through a difficult health issue.
Our own special menu at Haven Gastropub in Pasadena, CA.
Icon of the City of Lights in Las Vegas.
Excellent meal at the Peace Tree Cafe in Moab, UT. I forgot to photograph the amazing brownie/chocolate cake square drizzled in two rich syrups and topped with shaved chocolate. Yum! And all for $7 US.
