Welcome. I’m finding more and more that, through traveling around the Colorado, where I live, or around the country, I’m experiencing many things that I’d like to share or even just have at hand. Therefore, this site will be divided up into section encompassing travel, history and miscellaneous entries. As well, with my interest in bicycling, there will be local travel posts. I find it interesting what can be learned while riding around on a bike. For example, Denver has a paved bicycle path named the South Platte River Trail. This is approximately along same path used by early fur trapper and traders and is also known as the Trappers Trail.

I’m also hoping to organize some of my travels along the Santa Fe, Lewis and Clark, and the California (Oregon) trails. For example, based on the book Following the Santa Fe Trail by Simmons and Jackson, I’ve photographed many of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) markers along the way. Unfortunately, I don’t have them in order as they appear along the trail. I hope to resolve this.

Enjoy
