Roadtrip 2008: Days 4 & 5
Here’s the thing: I am pretty tired right now, so I won’t be posting many pictures today, and I’ll be even briefer than usual.
Yesterday we visited Dinosaur National Monument in eastern Utah. It was cool / hot!! We got to see some actual fossils embedded in actual rock in actual formation. Three of them belonged to Diplodocus! Here is one of them:
Then we headed west to Denver, saw some pretty views, and slept!
Today we hung around downtown Denver and met up with Jeff the Girl, formerly of Five Iron Frenzy, my favorite band from college days. She and her family are really nice! And we ate some of the best Mexican food I’ve had in a long time! Thanks a lot, Leanor, Stephen, and progeny!

Oh, and then we returned to the campground to find that a storm had ripped our tent off its stakes and filled it with water, soaking parts of our bed sheets. Oh well. I have a microbrew in the ice chest.
Stumble it!
