My husband told me there wasn't much going on in Grand Junction, CO. He went to Mesa State University and spoke so fondly of his friends who lived there, so I assumed that one day we would visit. So, for his birthday we went to Grand Junction, CO to visit friends.
This past weekend was great aside from getting sick together. Las Vegas has already gone through its bloom season, but it seems in Grand Junction, Colorado and Moab, Utah it just started. I blame it on the numerous Cottonwood trees that were everywhere.
Here's a some pics of our visit.

Can you see the delicate arch in the background? |

Joy! |
