Day 3 - June 8th

 6:30 am

A beautiful sunrise while leaving Kansas.

 It was a very straight, desolate ride along I-70.

 Finally, Colorado.  Never thought we would leave Kansas.

A state full of beautiful wild flowers.

Our destination - Colorado Springs.  Stayed at the Cheyenne State Park.  Arrived at 4 pm.  What a wonderful view this was from the camp site.




Finally able to relax some.

Day 2 - June 7

6:30 am

Left Indiana.  Next stop St. Louis, Missouri.  Traveled through Illinois as well.  

The Jefferson National Memorial was fantastic (Gateway Arch).  The National Geographic film on the Lewis and Clark Expedition had some amazing views of their travels.  What a remarkable group of men and one woman (a 16 year old, pregnant indian woman).  It is hard to imagine how they accomplished what they did.  

We arrived in Kansas around 9:00 for the night.
