And so the annual trek to Colorado begins for Dick & Jo. Departing Topeka, KS around 10 am local time the family got the first text photo about 10:15am which was not as interesting as you might hope but everyone knows that the beauty and scenic photo boom will happen soon enough 😊

| 10:15am - On the road departing Topeka! |
Of course, their first rest stop was in Emporia, KS and the photo received via text to the family was via the McDonald's drive through with assurances that they were inside but the view was of the blue skies as you can see...

| 11:20 am - Our view from McD Emporia |
The next documented stop is just outside Marion, KS where the family received this photo of the Mars Arch Bridge which is apparently not being used for traffic but makes for beautiful scenery!

Obviously Day 1 is a long day of travel but with planned stops to see friends! The old stomping ground of Great Bend, KS it is and a visit with Harold Rees is a top priority! He is mentally still right there with all the math and photography nerds of our time even though he has faced some physical challenges as he is aging (much like all of us!). Just loved getting to see him and spend a bit of time with him this afternoon!

| 4:30pm - Rees says hi! |
Next stop a quick dinner in Great Bend! Yummy!

| 5:40pm - Dinner time@TacoBell ! |
To be continued...
