I have honestly felt like my life has turned into a John Denver song; I could quote you so many things from his songs that describe my new reality... but I digress.
After leaving the Pawnee Buttes, resolving to return properly equipped for a great hike, we stopped and had dinner in Fort Morgan.
We opted to take the scenic drive west home instead of highway the whole time. And boy, oh boy, what a drive it was.
In the song "Rocky Mountain High", John Denver says this: The Colorado Rocky Mountain high, I've seen it raining fire in the sky...
Well, if these sunset photos didn't show exactly that, I don't know what would. It had been a drizzly sort of day, so as we drove into the sunset, there were clouds in the sky with the light burning through. I have to tell you, it was an awe-inspiring sight. I know the photos at this size don't do it justice, but if you can view them larger, you might see what I mean. Especially the bottom photo. I am planning to enlarge this for our wall- it really looked like fire.
And now I know what John Denver meant. In more ways than one.
p.s. I will post the rest of the photos in an album on Webshots and my fb page

Sounds like you had a fabulous vacation. I know what you mean by the time change thing. I had a hard time when we got to Greece. Felt funky for a day or two. Can't wait to see more pictures and hear all about the trip. Your life sounds so wonderful. We need to talk on the phone soon. So much to catch up on.....
