As we left Ordway this morning we were treated to our first distant
view of what will soon turn into the Rockies. (See first photo; they
were clearer "live," I'm afraid.) Uneventful ride except for (a) a
lovely little meander through some pretty neighborhoods, plus the city
zoo, in Pueblo, the first city riding we've done the entire trip; and
(b) the dramatic change in the landscape as soon as we got outside the
city limits -- very rock-formation-y and desert-y (see second photo).
We're in a state park 5 or so miles past Pueblo; Pikes Peak is visible
in the distance.
One more flat-ish day of riding tomorrow, I believe, and then we start
climbing some serious mountains.
