2nd Anniversary!

So, in an effort to see more of Colorado, Becky and I took advantage of the occasion of our second anniversary to visit Great Sand Dunes National Park. It's an incredible place in the San Luis Valley where the sands ground fine from the path of the ancient Colorado River (before it flooded and re-settled in its present location) have been picked up by wind currents and deposited near the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo range.

It's really a bizarre thing for a coupla Californians to see. The sand is really fine, and walking on it is an effort.



That's not to say, however, that people don't do it.



And... we found out that the President is in the market for a pickup.
