We left early and headed to Unaweep Canyon, (click on the blue to learn more)
Then we headed on toward Uravan (which is no longer there)
Making a stop at the Hanging Flume. What an amazing feat of wonder.
Can you see it, barely hanging alongside the cliff?
Then off we went to eat at Blodie’s in Naturita, up to Bedrock and Paradox, then Nucla for a small tour.
I drove all the way to Norwood, but Terry had to drive Norwood Hill (scary) and Dallas Divide (Lots of traffic—scary)
At Ridgeway, I took over.
We made an ice cream stop in Montrose, then came home.
Coddiwomple (v.): to travel in a purposeful manner towards a vague destination.
Tired, happy, and ready to be back to our routine.
Your friend on a western Colorado farm,
Linda
