Skyline Drive, Canon City Colorado


Hey there all ye friendly people! It’s me Ben Torre the awesome. Well you might be wondering what we’ve been doing these last few days well that’s what I BT will tell you. We were out crusin’ in Canon City Colorado one fine evening when we decided to take the scenic Colorado Skyline Drive. Well well that’s all fine and dandy but it’s a lot more than just a drive. Where there are dinosaur tracks from the bottom up and rocks to climb on. The tracks were pretty cool but I didn’t think that they were all they were stuck up to be.  But that’s not all we did no, no, no that’s not all; we also saw the lights of 3 different cities 3 can you imagine that? The light was fading quickly as I took this silhouette photo of Dad, Mom, Daniel, and Josh. Well as we were starting our return trip down from the nosebleed section I was stunned to find out that we had been driving on a ridge the entire time! There were some really switch-backs on the way down. And we all agreed that our 34 foot recreational vehicle couldn’t make those turns. All in all it was a pretty cool drive.   

Anna and I didn't go on  the drive, we were just too tired after our rafting trip earlier that day, Monday. Here are the pictures Ben took.
