A Gradual Unfolding: The Real Golden Arches
http://agradualunfolding.blogspot.com/2006/09/real-golden-arches.html
Sunday, September 03, 2006. The Real Golden Arches. When we were leaving the Arches National Park after taking tons of pictures, we overheard a woman say to a friend, "This is going to be one of those 'the pictures don't do it justice' kind of places." She was right. But I thought I'd post some of my favorites anyway. This is at the visitor's center. Giving you a little perspective of just how large the arches are! Those are BEAUTIFUL pictures!

A Gradual Unfolding: Dude, just get the postcard!
http://agradualunfolding.blogspot.com/2006/08/dude-just-get-postcard.html
Wednesday, August 30, 2006. Dude, just get the postcard! I must admit, I am not a big fan of Kansas. There is not much to keep you occupied as you travel the miles and miles of prairie land. You know it's a bad sign when the following takes place only about an hour and half into the trip:. Me: "This is boring. I am having trouble staying focused on the road.". Dad: "You're probably just tired.". Me: "Yeah, TIRED OF KANSAS! I am REALLY enjoying your trip across country. What a wonderful idea!

A Gradual Unfolding: High Roller!
http://agradualunfolding.blogspot.com/2006/09/high-roller.html
Sunday, September 03, 2006. We visited the El Dorado Casino in Reno so I could take my first shot at gambling. I won five times working the slots, but then lost it all. I'm out $3! Gambling, it's such an addiction. You are making me want to play the slot machines, again. When I turned 21 and was legally allowed to be in a casino, my dad took me to one of the riverboat casinos in Louisiana when I was traveling on a business trip with him. Like you, I'm a conservative gambler! View my complete profile.

A Gradual Unfolding: August 2006
http://agradualunfolding.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 31, 2006. I've Seen It Rainin' Fire in The Sky. In order to pay homage to the wonderful Rocky Mountains, I felt it necessary to listen to John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High" along the way. While we climbed the elevation, we were audience to a beautiful lightning storm. I wish I could have captured a better picture. DAY FIVE: Colby, KS to Fruita, CO. August 31, 2006. Happy Birthday, Brian! We enter Mountain Time Zone. So where are the mountains? We arrive in Colorado. We arrive in Denver.
