Hello Blog Friends,
Well,as they say...the best laid plans...we are still in Grand Junction. We tried to leave, but only got about 20 miles or so down the road. We left at about 1:30, got to mile marker 58, then came to a dead stop. In a place with limited cell signal, of course. While we were sitting there, the Grand Junction Bomb Squad went rolling by. Not a good sign! We sat for 45 minutes, moved less than 1/4 miles, said "this is nuts", and turned around in the median and came back to town. Turns out, there was a suspicious looking item they thought might be a bomb, but ultimately wasn't. Police closed I-70 in both directions for 4 hours. When we turned back, the line was over 5 miles long.
Mom sure was surprised to see us! Speaking of Mom, she is doing well and has a tentative release date of next Tuesday and will fly home a couple days after that.
We didn't take many photos today, but I can share a few pics of Debeque Canyon and the traffic jam.
