Sam Houston

Heading north on I45, you will see this statue of Sam Houston.
It is at the exit for the Sam Houston college.

Sorry Sam, but it seems i cut some of your head off.

My home

This is a picture my home a few years ago. As you can see it was taken at Christmas time.
This is what my home looks like now. I have the porch enclosed so that the leaves in the fall don't come on it anymore. Also keep all the snow from getting on the porch in the winter time. This should make the porch last longer and keep the cold at bay.
Don't look too bad if i my say.

right side view.

Left side view. Ron did it himself with some help from the neighbor.

if prices keep going up this will be true at airlines.

A friend sent this to me. I felt like shairing it with everyone who travels by planes. What out for these hidden costs.

Indianapolis Colts new home

The new Colts stadium from the distance off of I70
Here you can see the old stadium (RCA Dome) off behind the new stadium. Not sure what it is called.
The front or maybe the back view of it. Looks nice from here.
The side view as i pass by. Let see how the Colts will play in their new stadium this year.

downtown Denver

In the downtown area where all the shopping stores and malls are at, no cars are there for travel. You can take this horse and carriage ride to your next store or ride the shoppers shuttle bus.
The Key Bank building. Very nice.


This is a nice cathedral in the downtown area. Didn't get the name of it.
Oh no!! Big Blue Bear!! I guess he is doing some window shopping for clothes or food.
The old Clock Tower. It is all that is left. It was attached to a bigger building, but the old building got torn down and this is what was left.
Downtown Denver, some small stores and very nice restaurants to eat at. We ate at Racines Restaurant. Very Good place to eat at.
Very well lit up building. Very nice.

travels in southeast Colorado

Hello, as I was traveling north on US 287, I forget how flat and beautiful this part of the state is.

Big wide open fields for the farmer to grow their crops.

However, dry like a desert.

As you drive, it is such a steady incline, you really don't realize how how in elevation you really are. This is around 4200 ft.

I made a stop at a Sinclair truck stop in Lamar, Co. I don't think this Green guy was too happy I pulled in.



This is my friend Ed. He lives and works in Denver. He picked me up last night and gave me a tour of downtown Denver.
