Another Sunday...Another three hour drive.
We are so ready for our trip to Greece that we get easily bored on the weekends. The weather has been really nice during the week but when the weekend comes, it is either cold, snowing, raining or windy. Today it's windy. To make matters worse, statewide. But on the bright side, it is sunny and warm with a high of 67.
Googling things to see in Colorado, Michelle came upon Bishop's Castle in the outskirts of Rye. The town or Rye is south west of Pueblo (just to get your bearings). Sounds good to me.
Quick breakfast while we charged up the Nikon D500 and drone batteries. I loaded the cooler with last nights kick ass dinner. To much to type but you I am including a couple of shots of the meal we cooked using a Jerusalem Cookbook that we recently purchased.

In the car we go! We figure we can make it under three hours depending on the traffic. Sunday morning going south. No problem.
We made it about an hour or so before the need to feed set in. Quick stop for coffee pastries and back on the road we go. About another hour went but then the need to purge the bladders kicked in. What were we thinking.
I was not aware that Bishop's Castle is located in a higher elevation. The temperature went from 65 to 51 in a matter of minutes. Michelle of course knew to bring extra jackets (clever girl). Once we got of the car, we knew we couldn't fly the drone. Windy was an under statement. 30 to 40 mile an hour winds with 60 gusts. Oh well, we were warm for the time being.
Without further rambling on my part, here the pictures. You probably scrolled past all of the text just to see them anyway.
We spent about an hour or so there and got back in the car. We stopped at a church parking lot in Rye to eat our lunch (which was quite good by the way) and then drive home.
We were lucky to be going north. There was a massive grass fire on the west side of the freeway. A couple more mikes up the road there was a car accident and about a mile past that accident was another accident. No rubber neckers on our side of the road so we made it home in great time. That's it. Another day done. Time for dinner.
