Camping Near Outinthemiddleofnowhere, Colorado

We recently spend a cool and windy weekend dry camping for free on BLM lands not too far from Denver. Met some new buds and drank a few Buds, too!

I ain'ta going to tell you where this is, because it's a secret.

Haze filled the air from New Mexico fires on Saturday, but the air was clear by Sunday.

We circled the wagons to form a windbreak from the strong southerly winds.

Camping at 8000 feet. Great views all around.


A classic Airstream motoryhome!


The Windy survived the bouncy-bounce on the rough backcountry "roads".

At Cherry Creek State Park

Drove the Windy to 5.5 miles to Cherry Creek State Park today so I could air 'er out and do some Spring cleaning.

Fortification: The National Bier of DenBRRR.

Well, Windy's starting to clean up already.

Mirror's still durdy.

The boys posing.

The grass stayed green all winter.

Bloo sky with some liddle bit o' cloudy.

There is a big open field in the park where hundreds of thousands of youth attended International Youth Day to see Pope John Paul II in 1993. Now the park is populated by thousands of walkers and bike riders, oh, and campers 'n fisherpeeps.
