Colorado- continued.....

Pueblo was pretty uneventful. Ride down was south on I-25 through Castlerock and Colorado Springs. The drive to this point is beautiful- mountain scenery (sometimes you see elk or deer, and an occasional rock chuck). Once you get past Colorado Springs, the surroundings are more barren- sagebrush, dry grasses, and dirt.
Pueblo is a good sized city. They have your usual stores- WalMart, Home Depot, Party America. I drove around a bit, and ventured into older parts of town that were trying to revitalize, but probably having a tough time with due to the current economy (not too many people opening new businesses right now, but I am sure there will be soon, as bargains are everywhere on leases!) I didn't stick around after my appointment with my customer. I headed back to Colorado Springs, had lunch, and saw two accounts there. Then it was back to Denver!
Friday I went to Greeley, CO. This is in the north-east central portion of Colorado. I ventured the back roads after my appointment and stopped at an old fort (will add the name at a later date), that was being renovated and rebuilt. I talked for a few minutes with the help (probably a volunteer). He was kind enough to explain the renovation and talked about the other events they do there, such as the black powder shoot that was going on at that time. I dropped $10 in the donation container, picked up a couple brochures, and went on my way. I had lunch inside the airport. The fryer was out, so I was not able to order rocky mountain oysters. I had to settle for a salad and baked potato. I couldn't have fries either :( I had a glass of wine, then headed to the gate to wait for my plane, which was 45 mins. late. By the time I got home I was pooped! Only two days of rest, then on the road again. This time- Montana!
