Colorado to Iowa

We were a little disappointed when we went into
Golden, Colorado for the Farmer's Market.
It was postponed until next Saturday because of
Buffalo Bill Days. Streets were blocked and traffic
was heavy because of the parade and all the
activities. We walked around and asked about the Farmer's
Market and there were a few vendors at a different location
so we were able buy some peaches, strawberries, veggies
and cheese curds.

 It sprinkled most of the day but it made
a beautiful sunset!

One of our favorite places to go is

Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Colorado.

 Yes, we were able to attend another concert
at this amazing place.

Peter Frampton & The Steve Miller Band were great!

Here is a fabulous view at the concert with Denver lit up
in the background.

We can see Red Rocks Amphitheater from Bear Creek 

Campground where we stayed for four days. 

 We ate our way through Nebraska. Well there isn't

 much to do except see fields of corn, soy beans and large,

smelly, cattle lots. In Lincoln we had lunch at La Paz

Mexian Restaurant which has very good food. 

Then we had to stop and get ice cream at eCreamery
in Dundee-Happy Hollow Historic District which
 is located west of Midtown Omaha, Nebraska.
 

 We did a u-turn when we saw Great Harvest Bread.

 They closed in Des Moines several years ago so it
was a treat to purchase some specialty breads.

It was late in the afternoon but we still stopped at Walnut, Iowa.
 It is a little town with many antique shops that we have
wanted to go to for years but never took the time.
It is fun to wander through the shops and see things
you used just a few years ago or growing up.

We finally made it back to Des Moines, Iowa
 which we left a little over a year ago!

Since we are staying here for about 5 weeks
 I am taking a break from blogging to enjoy
visiting with family and friends.
