Old truckers never die, they just get a new Peterbilt


On Friday, we spent most of the day driving "up" Kansas.  
 
Scenery starting to change a bit from previous days


The whole state was a slight incline leading into Colorado. Needless to say, our mileage was nottttt so great.  Overall it was pretty easy ride.  Pat recovered from being hit by the car (this also happened again Friday morning, only this time with the trunk…twice).  He enjoyed some leftover BBQ in the car, and was happier than a pig in shit.  The ride into Colorado Springs was absolutely stunning.  We arrived at our friend Kevin’s house in the late afternoon, and after getting settled in and taking a drive through the area, we went out to dinner.

Not the best lighting--Pat, Kevin, and his friend Chris


After dinner, we went out with some of Kevin’s friends and enjoyed some beers and pool before turning in for the night.  

Trying the local brews



The next morning, we embarked on our longest and scariest ride yet....
