We left the KOA after a good night of sleep pretty early in the morning. Set the GPS on Chad's phone for Mesa Verde National Park, and off we went. The GPS was not liking the route we had chosen and for hours it kept telling us to turn around. SO annoying, ha ha. We drove the southern part of the Rockies which was a beautiful drive! GPS doesn't know what it is missing ;)
In the mid-afternoon we arrived at Mesa Verde. The cliff dwelling ruins were awesome and the girls did great with hiking. We witnessed a thunderstorm roll through and a lightening strike started a fire. So we watched as helicopters and emergency crews responded to put it out. Exciting!
PICS from day 2:
