Rocky Mountain High, Colorado

Brain cancer is...

...living a lifetime every day.

This morning we woke up in the Utah desert. We had breakfast with a couple whose husband is also vanquishing brain cancer. He's the first one we have met in this 15-month adventure. Imagine sitting across the table from a person who has also had his fill of swallowing thousand-dollar pills.  I hope we see them again.

We managed our first mobile array change without significant blood loss. Phew. 

We then entered (and are still in) the great state of Colorado. Maybe the word "breathtaking" was invented for Colorado. You be the judge.

Lunch was with MaryRose and John, who love our national parks. John is a lobbyist for the Catholic Church on issues of social policy. How cool is that? Also cool: These friends are Packer Backers. We hope we see you two again.

Next we crossed the Rockies. Silly Rockies! You made our video extra long. Sigh! 

We enjoyed Moffat Tunnel, which is 6 miles and 10 minutes long. We saw the Continental Divide. No Big Deal.

Next up? Nightime in Nebraska. Sunrise in Iowa.  We love you, Team D!
