Vacation 2012 - Part 2 - Colorado

We spent Saturday night in Amarillo, Texas. Brian treated us to an extra special dinner at Red Lobster! We were tired after such a fun weekend in Stephenville, so after dinner and a quick stop at a park for Aspen to get some wiggles out, we headed back to the hotel for an early bedtime. Sunday morning we packed up and headed out decently early. In case some of you are wondering...we counted 100 Antelope from Clayton, NM to Raton, NM. :) (I saw more, but wasn't able to count them fast enough, so Brian had me settle with 100 since I knew for sure I'd counted that many.) We stopped in Trinidad, CO for lunch...Aspen enjoyed her plain bean burrito. It was SO nice actually stopping for lunch. I'm used to picking it up and going again, but we would stop so Aspen could have a break from the car. It helped her so much. 



From Trinidad we headed north to Walsenburg, then west to Alamosa. After getting fishing liscenses, groceries, and the best Domino's pizza ever, we went south/west to the Conejos River, and ultimately the Lake Fork Ranch. Aspen fought her sleep that entire day, but couldn't make it past the comfy vibrating of the  dirt road we turned on to, to reach the cabin.
