Heading out west


 We stayed at Steven and Tamara's on Monday (Memorial Day) night after an awesome cookout at their place.  Tuesday the plan was to drive to Aurora, Colorado to stay at Emily's in-laws.  That meant we got to drive through Kansas!   Kansas is pretty amazing to look at for the first hour but a whole day of flat prairie and open skies gets old so we sweetened the drive buy stopping at Russell Stovers, and visiting the Cathedral of the Plains in Victoria, Kansas.




We also made a small detour to visit Monument Rocks.  





Wednesday was driving through Colorado and into Utah.
Here are some pictures of the Colorado river at a rest stop.  That river was really full and fast!



And a picnic in Parachute, Colorado.
