Needles Hiway and train ride


This morning we took a ride on an 1880's steam train from Hill City to Keystone and back. It was an interesting ride but nothing as scenic as the Durango to Silverton train ride in Colorado. Has a good rain storm on return and had lunch and read the paper in the motor home till it blew over. Decided to take the Needles highway which everyone advised against due to the short narrow tunnels, but read the dimensions on the tunnel and figured we could make it through. Had to fold the mirrors in to clear and went slow. It was a beautiful drive, would have been a shame to miss it.

  1. Did mom drive through that tunnel? That would have been scary. Mark ducks his head when we drive the van in a parking garage, I can't imagine him going through that tunnel!
    Loved the pictures and story of the bull and buff.
    Enjoy your time with David and Linda. I guess you will be heading home after that. Drive safe. We'll be anxious to see you both.
    Love,
