Wednesday morning we began our drive eastward. Four Corners was on our way so we stopped and visited four states at once. I remember going there as a girl when our family was driving up to Salt Lake City to attend General Conference. The rest of the day led us through southern Colorado on state highway 160 which was such a beautiful route. We ate lunch in Durango along the banks of the Animas River. Towards the late afternoon, we encountered rain that stayed with us until after dinner in Pueblo. Our stay that night was in Eads, Colorado - a tiny farm town in the middle of nowhere in eastern Colorado. Thursday we visited Monument Rocks in western Kansas - literally on our way from state roads up to I-70 - and then through never-ending Kansas. Dinner was in Topeka and on to Columbia where we slept at Steven and Tamara's. We pulled into St Louis late Friday morning. What a trip!
Photos: Four Corners - including the photo taken when I was a girl and that I re-created; picnic lunch on the Animas River (that last photo is when Steven fell in!); the beauties of southern Colorado; Monument Rocks; all the baby hats I made during the journey
