The car was dropped off at the dealership. With several hours to kill, a car is rented and we set off up into the Rockies. I have never been to the Rockies before and even though we were only a few hours from Denver the view was amazing. We stopped by the side of the road, and overlooks and snapped picture after picture of beautiful valleys, and mountains.
We drove through Georgetown, The Silver Queen of The Rockies. It's a little mining town that is nestled in a valley near the Guanella Pass. We drove through the pass, over 11600 feet above sea level. I even climbed up onto a frozen waterfall, and then proceeded to wheeze for the next half hour. It was definitely worth the trip, on a beautiful day.
We got back to Denver as the cold front was moving in, we picked up the car and drove off into Nebraska with the adverse weather behind us. We stopped for the night in Kearney.
