sorry to be late. i mean, i had some i-net connection over the last couple of days but no wireless and i am lazy to write my posts on somebody' s home pc. so i just didn't. plus there has not been that much happening. after we left buena vista some days ago, we went to the city of pueblo, that is big but not too inspiring and headed to la junta, lamar and burlington then. all of these are in the plains areas, which means that even though i may add soem pics from the canyon near la junta in some days, it was really not much to see in these last days. but the places were real and some of them looked what i would expect the rural u.s.a. to look before ever coming to colorado. today we made it from burlington (which is almost in kansas) to colorado springs that is the last stop on our trip and a place where my little sister is gonna pick me up and drive the long way to the beautiful steamboat springs that's everybody talking about:) looking forward to that a lot. i am spending the last four days of my organized colorado experience over the city of colo sprgs in a house with the most beautiful view ever. i would share a picture with you, had i not lost the usb cord long time ago. so just be patient and you're gonna get to see it sooner or later:) g'nite from the hill over the city (as opposed to "city upon a hill":) - i do not think anybody reading this can really get this play on words, if you do, let me know!) see ya ...
