Raton, New Mexico is so
close to the southern border of Colorado that within ten minutes of leaving our
motel, we had crossed into Colorado. The scenery ahead changed
dramatically with rocky crags and mountain ranges looming large in the
distance.
A three hour
drive north on I-25 brought us to the town of Pueblo at an elevation of 4,695 ft. We
found a parking lot which must rate as one of the prettiest I’ve ever
seen.
