Dear Isaac, Maia, and Virtual Wanderers,

All good things must come to an end and today was the end of a fabulous road trip. Today took us from Cortez, CO in the Four Corners to home in Montrose. We made one last stop at Canyons of the Ancients Visitor’s Center before heading over Lizard Head pass for home. Here it is 9 months later to the day that I am finally posting this. Fortunately, the photos and videos remember the day better than I do at this point. Please enjoy the last leg of our journey.

Here is our day in a slideshow. The video is below. I am going to include links for the full journey at the bottom of the page.
