Road Trip to CA: Day 3
After a marathon 12ish hour drive across all of Nebraska and Colorado yesterday, we stayed the night about 20 miles from Utah in Grand Junction, CO. Along the way, we passed through Denver and the Rocky Mountains, which were pretty awesome! The only snag was some road construction on the west side of the mountains, which cost us like 40 minutes of stop-and-go traffic that also made my left leg tired from clutching :-) After that we had quite the adventure finding food in Rifle, CO. We ended up at a crazy local Mexican restaurant that actually had pretty good food. This picture is the beautiful canyon we were stuck in during the road construction. See all the stopped cars ahead?
