The Royal Gorge, Colorado



Ok, so the tour still feels like it hasn't quite started. When Laura, Merne and I awoke yesterday it was 34 degrees and snowing, with a forecast of more of the same all day. Never one to pass up an opportunity, Laura agreed to drive me to my campsite at the Royal Gorge, outside of Canon City, CO.




We drove up to the Royal Gorge bridge but they were charging $28 to go in to the park so I took a picture from the parking lot and we headed back to the campground.




We shared a nice lunch of soup and then Laura headed back. I spent the day organizing equipment, checking maps and reading. This morning I rolled out bright and early, ate some oatmeal and drank some tea. I'm in Florence, CO, heading to Pueblo. I plan to camp at Lake Pueblo State Park this evening.
