Denver Visit...Next Stop, Grand Canyon

Thanks Steve for taking us around today! We got a mini tour of Arapaho National Forest (including Lake Echo), Idaho Springs (where the gold rush began), Georgetown, Red Rocks, and Mount Vernon Canyon. More driving tomorrow as we make our way to the Grand Canyon. I'm excited about the drive  along highway 550 and a pit stop at Mesa Verde (Thanks Sascha for the suggestion!). With the meteor shower scheduled for tomorrow, we're hoping for a great view. We'll be spending the night in Bluff, UT and arrive at the Grand Canyon on Friday.
