... qwerkie which is good fun. "19 exits of quirkiness!"<br>-I was rocking the Delaware shirt with some debatable language on the back but the Brits loved it...'unnecessary gangster shirt"<br>-Seb pulling the gin martini ingredients out again, packing olives and all this time! HA!<br>-Using the cabinets as a backboard for cans in the trashcan...not the easiest task with Lola's driving antics.<br><br>Yesterday Sumner randomly found Lake Sumner so naturally that was our final ...

... from all of the other National Parks in that while it is beautiful, it is more famous for its former inhabitants, pre-historic Native Americans. <br><br>Furthermore, these Natives built elaborate cliff dwellings in the side of the mesa the park sits on, and they did this all nearly 1500 years ago! Check out the pictures of the dwellings!<br><br>The park itself is pretty, with some great views. But obviously the best part is the history behind it all. It&#8217;s rather comical ...

... June 16, 2009<br> <br>Saw Dr. Schroeder this morning. I will need a crown on my tooth but no root canal as one was already done on this tooth. He did a temporary procedure on the tooth and we left at 12:30 to return to Colorado. Made a quick stop to see Grandma (GG/Nana) before leaving town again. Stopped for a bite to eat in Cuba and another stop in Durango at Papa Ron&#8217;s favorite store, Wal-mart to pick up a few groceries.<br ...

... die er niet smakelijk uit. Dan maar weer verder zoeken naar een restaurant. Aan de rand van het dorp komen we aan een microbrewery waar ook weer eten geserveerd wordt en we gaan daar naar binnen. De special van de dag is Mexicaans: 1 burrito en 2 taco's. We nemen alle twee de special. Ik met kip en Stef met beef. Het is erg lekker maar veel te veel. Ik krijg amper de helft op. De dienster vraagt of ik een dinner box wil (de moderne variant van een doggy bag) maar aangezien ik het ...

We had a beautiful, breathtaking, up-and-down kind of day yesterday, as Greg drove the motorhome on twisty, windy, narrow roads, through five mountain passes, all in the 10,000-11,000+ range. It was beautiful and amazing, but no more amazing than the ...

... a pretty ridiculous array of items to bring. we were swimming last night. luckily we found the hidden lightswitch that must've been motion sensored. we watched justin long on the tube. live free or die hard. the sunset is incredible right now. we're outside here in cortez and it's got to be high 50s or 60s. it's cold. i only brought one long sleeve shirt. i've become increasingly crazier as i've ...

... idea. Scary. We kept passing these bikers that are on a 1000 mile in 24 hours butt buster ride to earn a patch. No we were going the other way and didn't speed in any way. You couldn't. We passed through little towns that were amazing like Switzerland in America. Driving through you'd swear you were going through Switzerland. All the houses had Swiss style designs. Really cool Joe said that it was just like being in another country. We feel crowded ...

... Kivas, littered in the front of the buildings. These were in ground they used to have adobe roofs with a whole in the middle with a ladder so one might exit. These were mostly ceremonial chambers. If you are looking at the ruins, from left to right you can see the improvements in the masonry. A majority of the building took place over 20 years. The ancient Puebloans lived in ...

... in the cliffs which looked like "a magnificent city." These ranchers from the Mancos Valley east of the park wer the first white men to see what they calle "Cliff Palace." After further exploration, they entered the dwelling and took a small collection of artifacts before leaving for the day. In the next 18 years these same men, as well as various exploring parties and tourist groups, made expeditions into Mesa Verde. Many of them camped in the dwellings ...

... She gave us the eye as we came to a stop and whipped our camera out, before ambling gracefully off into the stunted trees at the side of the road. The ranger that took us on the tour was called Sarah, and she was a pleasure to listen to. Interesting and entertaining, she was passionate about the area and the Ancestral Pueblo people that had lived all around the Mesa Verde area. The Cliff Palace dates back to the year 1200, and it is an amazing and surreal experience ...
