Found this in my draft folder, a post that is about a month old. Guess I'll post it now.
Hard to believe that it has been almost a year since I have posted anything here but it has been worse. Hoping to be able to post more as I discover Morgan Home's new location in the Rocky Mountain State of Colorado.
Packed up a U Haul truck and headed west with our two furballs. Two days on the road and we finally arrived in Fort Lupton, Colorado where it seems that oil is a big part of it's economy. Not surprising after seeing all the oil wells along I-76. These 'grasshoppers' dot the ranchland.
Yesterday the motel we are staying at filled up with workers from Midland, Texas. This morning they were all up and about and heading out around 6 a.m. This made me realize how far from Minnesota we were and how much closer to home we had come.
Today was also the fist time since we arrived that we were able to see the mountains. There is snow at the higher elevations already but the trees around here are slowly turning but still green for the most part.
We thought we missed the turning of the aspen in the mountains but a drive through Roosevelt National Forest proved us wrong.
