    The wife and I have been traveling to Colorado for nearly 25 years, but only in the winter.
    We’ve been missing a lot!!
    THANKS for sharing the awesome scenery!
    Sleestaks! C’mon Will!! 😂

      Colorado is amazing in every season, isn't it!? As a kid in the 70s, Sleestaks were creepy af! 🤣 Thanks for watching!

    Yum Ice cream... I saw Vanilla, Carmel and Butterscotch. Yes, that was a great unique place. I am glad you didn't get further into the storm and that you had time beforehand to hike a little bit. That was a beautiful place.

      Haha yep, I can see it now: Paint Mines Interpretive Park, sponsored by Ben & Jerry's! We got out before the rain hit, but I still had to drive in it! Neat place, fitting end to this particular road trip.

    Hello. I jumped over from Dave Collier's live and see that you are also into the outdoors. I'll be keeping an eye open for you and look forward to getting to know you.

    Paint mines. I have never heard of this before, what a hidden gem. Love the shirts guys! Looks like a planet from Star Trek. Out of all the channels I watch, you guys do the best with giving information and doing a vlog. It’s a balance I’m still trying to perfect. I bet he the kid did. When folks recognize us I assume they saw another asian family but then they describe our very unique videos and family, kind of freaks me out in a good way. Thanks for taking us around.

      I thought of Star Trek also! It is weird to get recognized, isn't it? I keep telling Catfish he's "TH-cam famous" but he doesn't believe me, LOL!

      There were a dozen or so cars at the trailhead, but everybody was spread out enough that it made for a very nice visit!

    Cool landmark, but I've been to Death Valley and believe they have something just like this. Would go if it's on the way, but not sure if I want to drive 40 east to see this.

      There are a lot of places with similar formations, but this really was on our way, and made a great place to check out and stretch our legs!
