Day 34: Absolutely Nothing Happened

Mile 5826: Leave Moab

We went to the gym in our hotel before heading out of town. Then we enjoyed the continental breakfast at the hotel and we were on our way. We were the only people there under 70.

The drive to Boulder is about 6 hours. In less than an hour, we crossed the Colorado border.

Great welcome sign

Hours later we stop for lunch in Glenwood Springs, CO. James' fishing magazine said it was "the most fun place in the world". I think it was because of all of the fishing streams we drove by. The Mexican food was fantastic.


Yum
The drive continues and the scenery changes to what I would think of as 'classic Colorado'

Check out the snow covered mountains in the background

Mile 6165: Arrive in Boulder

We were in Boulder just before dinner. (There was a stop or 2 at the outlet mall and a search for fly fishing stores). We received a recommendation for the restaurant 'Salt' in downtown Boulder.

This is the super-fancy drink menu at Salt. We didn't take advantage. 

Pork shoulder with brussel sprouts (they are underneath, I promise!) James and I shared the dish
We went back to the hotel to relax after dinner... not the best hotel room we have had, but not the worst.

Tomorrow: Checking out the benefits of Boulder
