Cripple Creek, CO

Well, we left Dumas, Texas, this morning and headed for Cripple Creek, CO..We saw a lot of antelope in the fileds on the roads between Dumas and Raton. It was a beautiful day, with a clear very blue sky. So different from Arkansas. After we got to Pueblo, CO, we got off the Interstate and went over to a little dirt road we have always traveled when we come to Colorado. It took us two hours to travel the road up to Victor, CO and then on over to Cripple Creek. The aspens were so pretty on the dirt road. It was just a very relaxing ride through the country side. We are staying at Midnight Rose Hotel and Casino in Cripple Creek and it is very nice. We walked the streets a little tonight and played the slots. I did better at the newest casino in town called the Wildwood. We are hoping to sleep better tonight than we did last night, but that still remains to be seen. Sometimes you can be too tired to sleep good, but if you take enough drugs(for Kristi's benefit) you can sleep very good. Goodnight to all.

There really is a Cripple Creek? Interesting! Glad you took some time to play at the casinos... win big!
We had a very nice visit with Kirk last night and we're looking forward to visiting with you when you make it to Utah. Safe travels!
