October 24...En Route to Rocky Mountain National Park

(Kim's Perspective)
It was time to leave our science fiction gateway, I mean getaway, so we packed up and headed north to our next destination, Rocky Mountain National Park. We headed up I-25 through Denver and Boulder and then took 36 towards Estes Park.



The scenery was like any you’d find on an interstate through a city. Besides, we’ve already been to Denver so it wasn’t all that interesting.

We liked this billboard a lot...


We can never seem to get away from Westminster.


Our first glimpse of the mountains...






Our first glimpse of wildlife…he was sitting at the McDonald’s in Estes Park. I guess no one told him…

We headed into the park and found a site at Moraine Campground.

It was cold and foggy and then it began to rain later in the evening. We contented ourselves with dinner, some tea and some sci-fi entertainment and then headed to bed with the overwhelming noise of rain on the roof.
