In this episode of “The Journey of My Mother’s Son” podcast, Sandy and I talk about our first experience with the Rocky Mountains.

We entered Colorado from the east taking US Route 40 out of Kansas.  As we traveled across the Eastern Plains of Colorado and could slowly see the Rocky Mountains growing larger on the horizon, we were all left in awe of the beauty.

We spent five days in Colorado Springs, where I had my first book signing for the tour that would have us in Colorado for over a month.  We had a great time in Colorado Springs, but left with a very large list of things that we need to go back to see.

After Colorado Springs, we explored the Great Sand Dunes and spent three days in Alamosa before heading to Durango for a little over a week.
