Sunset over Lake Pueblo
Happy Independence Day! We’re parked at sites #9 and #10 at Arkansas Point campground near the South Marina at Lake Pueblo. Site #9 is a back-in site with great views over the lake to the north and the cliffs and hiking trails to the south. It’s also very private since neighboring site #7 is blocked as an overflow site. Site #10 is a pull-through site across the street and also shares the gorgeous views across the lake.
Arriving on Friday, we’ll spend 5 nights here since the 4th falls on a Tuesday. With temperatures approaching 100, we’ll plan on spending days on the beach and evenings around the campfire. On Sunday we’ve rented a pontoon boat (thank Shawn!) and will get to play on the water just as we used to with the ski boat. Pueblo was always one of our favorite boating lakes, plenty of open water for skiing and nice quiet coves for hanging out and enjoying the water.
Friday afternoon we take the short trip down to Walsenburg to meet a realtor from La Veta, CO and look at 5 parcels of land in the Navajo Ranch area. Newly on the radar, this small southern Colorado town may become our next home!
Spanish Peaks from Comanche Drive
After viewing awesome firework displays all around the lake on Tuesday evening, on Wednesday we’ll pack up and make the trip back to the Denver area. It’ll be a short overnight at home, on Thursday we’ll jump on a flight bound for Quito, Ecuador for a 10-night Galapagos Islands cruise-tour. After returning from the Galapagos, we’re home for 4 days before heading to Cheyenne Frontier Days. More from Cheyenne…
