HAPPY LABOR DAY - WE'RE OFF TO THE GREAT SAND DUNES
This morning we are saying goodbye to Buena Vista, heading south to Great San Dunes National Park and Preserve. These dunes (photo from the NPS website) are the tallest in North America, and look at that gorgeous backdrop of the Sangre de Cristos!
When we were in Westcliffe last week, we viewed these mountains from the east side - now we will get to see them from the west (and we know they won't be snow-capped).
Like us, several Boomer couples have stayed in southern Colorado since the Boomerang in Buena Vista in July, and we hope to meet up with them at the dunes for a few days. Since the dunes are in an unpopulated area snuggled up against high mountains, I'm not sure about phone and aircard reception while we are there. If I don't post to the blog over the next three days, don't be surprised. Once we leave the Dunes, we're planning a week in Taos, New Mexico - I know we can be in touch from there.
Gorgeous photo!!!!

If you get the chance to visit Alamosa look for the Adams State College Theater Building right on the main drag (west of downtown but before you get to Wal-Mart). If you see a curly headed young lady who looks MUCH too sophisticated to be one of the students she just might be the best looking Theater Professor at ASC. And she just happens to be my daughter. Wave hi to here if as you go by :-)
