Memorial Day Weekend Day 2

May 25, 2013
Colorado USA

Today we decided to ride east mostly to get as far away from holiday traffic and tourists as possible. We found ourselves rolling toward Fort Morgan which is a nice little town we have visited before.

Rolling east away from holiday crowds and tourists

A nice green spot in Fort Morgan CO

As we were taking a water and stretch break we spotted a War Memorial in Fort Morgan so we walked across and paid our respects.

Some gave all

If you are able save for them a place inside you...

75MM Howitzer

We stepped inside the library which I remembered as one of the nicer libraries I have visited. They are in the process of setting up a small museum in the lobby area. It should be interesting to visit.

Just outside the entry is this sculpture in memory of Ruth Bloedorn Weber

In the entry is this marvelous sculpture entitled Mother of the Plains

And on the wall in the entry is this early 1900s motorcyle photo

The rode west toward home

Today's ride was uneventful and lazy. If we had planned it - this would have been what we planned. If anything could be said about it - I could mention it was a bit windy but considering we were on the plains - that would be normal.

Mileage for today's ride = 221.8 miles
