Cherry Creek State Park

The migration is underway. For so many years we have migrated home that we now have it down to a science.  First night out we stop at Cochiti Lake in New Mexico.  After a day or two there it is on to Lathrop State Park in Colorado.  Had a nice stop there and got the brains storm to possibly buy a B & B there as a place to live. The little town of LaVita was charming and a tempting place to live.  On to Denver we are now parked in Cherry Creek State Park and will spend two days with Sylvie in our camper.  After this we will head to Angura State Park in South Dakota, then the final leap home.

Well run state parks are a great way to migrate.  Usually they have showers, electricity, and water. The bonus at Cherry Creek is WiFi.  One of the nicest things about winter travel is the state parks are rarely crowded.  The weather usually does not get uncomfortable until we get back to the arctic in North Dakota. If we play it right even that is not to bad by April.

To pass time while at Erin's house in Denver Kadizzle took a bike ride down to the new mass transit station a block or two away.  It will be such a nice addition to the neighborhood.  In a week when it opens you will be able to buzz right downtown or out to the airport.  At the station they were installing a sculpture. Kadizzle talked to the artist involved and learned about some new materials that would be fun to experiment with.  The sculpture has a steel armature surrounded by foam. The foam is covered with a product called Hydrocal. The hydrocal covers a fiberglass matt and the final finish is regular car paint.  It all turned out very well.
