I'm finally going to do it, stay a night in Hot Sulfur Springs "resort", right on the Colorado River, where I've caught many nice Rainbow. I've seen this "resort" change much over 50 yrs, but it remains right next to the Amtrak train tracks...fair warning. But, looking forward to visiting and soaking in the hot springs!
Sorry, feel free to block me if this gets tiresome.
Took a shortcut I remember from way back..Co Rd 1, aka State Bridge road. Rivals Tail Ridge Road in scenery, and would be as popular I think if it only were paved..
But, rewarded by several Mule deer and a nice little Big Horn Sheep herd!
Staying in Kremmling tonight I believe.
Sitting in the beautiful and antique filled lobby of the Hotel Colorado, a nice hot cup of coffee, watching the snow come down over the steaming hot springs pool across the street. Quiet, peaceful, recharging. It dates from 1893.
I was first here in 1955.
OK I admit I can get a little emotional up here. I think it's because, not only do I like his music and themes, but for a brief instance of time, talking aviation, I felt a real connection. Remember that evening, Ashley?
Always a good time! After, driving up to the ranch en route to Aspen for a week, then it's Winter Park time!
Itinerary later...
