Denver Stopover

We weren't necessarily planning on going to Denver this trip as we wanted to get to southern Colorado as soon as we could, but a broken windshield changed our plans.  Our coach has a huge one piece windshield that is really nice to look out but it is expensive, and if broken obviously the whole thing, all 150# of it needs to be replaced.  And just any old auto glass shop can't handle it.  About 5 years ago, we had a company in Denver replace the windshield, yeah on the same coach, RV Glass Specialties, that did a great job.  Since our break wasn't causing us to not be able to drive, we had it taped up with gorilla tape, and luckily it wasn't growing, we altered our plans a bit so they could do this replacement as well.

While in the big city, we managed to get a few other things done, a run to Costco, some super Vietnamese food, a big grocery store, some real Jewish deli sandwiches, some fresh veg, and to top it off, I was able to see a friend of mine who moved to Denver recently, Brian, and to catch up on some of the goings on in the airline business.

How's that for a sandwich??
Pastrami, tongue, and swiss cheese!

Now we are down near Gunnison, CO, at a National Recreation Area on Blue Mesa Reservoir.  We will make a couple forays onto some nearby jeep trails, and check out a couple ghost towns, then off to Pagosa Springs tomorrow.
