Mr Charley went to Durango Ford to have the “overheating” issue looked at. They didn’t see anything, determined it’s the elevation and temperature causing it, and he’s (the mechanic) actually seen vehicle temps go even higher than Mr C’s. That’s why the engine fan kicks on and everything is fine. And......would you believe he has heard of the tailgate opening issue and, yes, they can fix it, but it’s a 3 day fix!! 😡 I wish the Vegas Ford place knew what the Durango Ford place does, since we were there for 19 days & leaving here tomorrow!
Oh well.......not gonna let that ruin our day, so we took a drive. Not just any drive! We drove the Million Dollar Highway to Silverton and Ouray! (Much better than that train ride and faster, too)
All I can say is WOW! After looking at these vivid colors you’ll see why Mr Charley said “hmmm, I think Colorado might be my new favorite state”.
Here’s some of my TONS of pics from the drive up to and over 10,000 ft elevation
I’ll bet there’s “gold in them there hills”
Yes, that’s the water flowing !
Even Sadie was amazed at the view!
Tons of Aspen trees changing ☺️
Yes, it says “Hot Springs Pool”!
And, we didn’t stop, but I had to get a pic as we drove by ☺️
(No side rails & a long drop down 😲)
You get the picture ☺️ it was a beautiful ride and we still got back early enough fornaptime (even though I can’t nap 😏)
Gave Mr C night off & we went out for dinner.
Have a good one everybody, we’re sure trying to.
