Adventure Tour Express

“A man practices the art of adventure when he breaks the chain of routine and renews his life through reading new books, traveling to new places, making new friends, taking up new hobbies and adopting new viewpoints” ~Wilfred Peterson

*****

Adventures begin in many ways, but often they bring surprises.  Like the year we went to the Keller Homestead in eastern Colorado.  The horizon on the eastern plains.  The majesty of the sky and the  broad expanse of the landscape.

I remember when we went into the house and  Ron walked into the kitchen he said, "In 50 years nothing has changed."

Then it was off to Colorado Springs, The Garden of the Gods, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and the Broadmoor Hotel.

All this a reminder to me of the much awaited adventure home this year to Montana and Colorado.

Please join now and offer one of your adventures and allow us to travel with you on your tour! 

All Aboard!!!

Creative Tuesday

I've not done Creative Tuesday before but thought I'd give it a try.  This store front in in the only mining town of Cripple Creek, Colorado.  It was taken in 1972 following a hail storm.  I've not been back to Cripple Creek since then so I cannot tell you anything about its status.  But indeed it had seen better days.

It looks a bit different after I played with it on picnik.  It's fun to experiment!  Wishing all a grand day!

Thanks be to God!

Now if you will visit Hot Toast and Jam  you will witness much better creations!

Please remember to mark your calendar for this year's Adventure Tour Express.  It is each Wednesday through the summer months!  Please come and share your vacation adventures.  All are welcome!
