Colorado Short Story
Our GPS was taking us to Lowery Pueblo. Danger Will Robinson, Danger!
Lost in Colorado. Our GPS is not infallible. We were going down this road feeling anxious. It got worse. A lot worse. I swore if we made it back to civilization I would tie our GPS in a chair and shoot its brains out. Carol wouldn't let me.
Goin' down this road
Salmon Ruins NM
Bloomfield New Mexico. Get a Lottaburger before you visit. Oh, and a peach shake. Okay, you are now ready for the ruins. Remember the advice of Emerson, "If you come to a door, open it."
Idaho State Penitentiary
This state prison was home to some of the most dangerous criminals in the penal system frm 1872 to 1973. You are invited to relive the exciting past of daring escapes, scandals, and executions. Think I'll pass. You first. Yep, great place for a Halloween party. Seriously, they have a Halloween event....you can rent the facilities. Think about that for a while...
