Into Colorado
US 50 and US 6 through some Utah farm and ranchlands. Side note: US 6 goes all across the country. Two lane road mostly through very scenic country. Every stretch we have been on has been very enjoyable. If you have opportunity to drive this road – do so. Joined I 70. Very scenic Interstate. Would choose it over I80 or I10 for cross country travel on a fast road if you want that.
Thirty miles into Colorado lies Grand Junction. The wine and fruit capitol of Colorado. We have been through here many times and always enjoy the variety of things to do and see.
Just west of Grand Junction is Colorado National Monument. A long plateau with many Red Rock formations carved in to it.

Got oil changed in both vehicles at Walmart. Third time we have done carbus oil change here. Timing just seems to work out that we are here when change is due. Fast, friendly, reasonably priced, and excuse to shop through Walmart. Sam’s club is right across street for gas.
