Off we went to Glade Park, Colorado

(Click on the blue to learn more)

This is another place we have never, ever visited

You must go onto the the Colorado National Monument to get there.  But once there

Everyone needs to stop at the very charming and very old General Store.

They have so many fun things in the store to see and to purchase, it was like a wonderland.

Although it’s home to many farmers, ranchers, and people who enjoy living (if not off the grid), it’s pretty much a little tougher than city life. I do know that lots of people have to haul their water.

Still, there is a post office, a movie night with the fire department, and a road and bridge crew.

All the children are bused to Fruita for schooling.

We found the whole experience fun.  And very interesting.
