I have finished my visits with family and friends, got to watch my grandson play summer baseball, and now I am ready to head west to meet up with my RVing friends. I decided to stop along the way at Colorado National Monument and camp at Saddlehorn Campground.

| A view across to Breckenridge from Frisco on I-70. I was surprised at how little snow I saw up in the mountains. I had heard they didn't have much snow this year, and now I see what they mean. After crossing the Eisenhower Tunnel I was ready for a break. There were times it was very slow going up those hills. |

| My spot in Saddlehorn Campground. I am on top of the ridge overlooking Grand Junction. |
 |
| What a wonderful view on my morning walks. |
 |
| Some of the formations found in the valley. |
 |
| There were small caves all along the cliffs. |
 |
| This is Window Rock. I think you must be on the floor of the valley to really appreciate this window. |
 |
| I found this small window while walking along Rim Trail. |
 |
| This was taken from The Grand View. This is Independence Monument. Every 4th of July they climb this rock to fly the US flag. |
