Today we left the flat plains and headed
for the mountains.
Along the way we made a very historical
stop at a place that was used by the Pony Express. This small log cabin with its tiny door and
low ceilings was a fascinating preservation of the days before automobiles and trains.
Not far from the Pony Express log cabin, was
the Frito Lay corn depot. Corn used in
the company’s products is sent to this massive depot and then redistributed to
the various manufacturing locations throughout most of the country. This relatively modern giant was quite a
contrast to the miniature timeworn lodge.
After many o’ small town, our final
destination today was in Big City Denver, Colorado. In the evening we wandered the city streets,
had a nice dinner, and stopped to play piano.
It was a fun, laid back evening.
