So, we left the Flint Hills of Kansas and traveled to Divide, Colorado for Spring Break and celebrate my husband's return from Afghanistan. We've rented a cabin for a week and have enjoyed breath-taking views since we arrived. Our 492 mile journey included....
Giant wind turbines along highway 70 in western Kansas. These things were huge and there were hundreds of them.
A train speeding alongside the highway.
More of the giant wind turbines.
Clay was on a mission to arrive at the cabin before sunset.
We stopped once for food and fuel.
