Seen along Colorado County Roads 10, 8, 860, and 858.

Why didn't the sign tell us how far it was to the Reservoir?!

Thank you, Pat, Sylvia, and Erich!

Nope, still no reservoir. We drove ... and drove ... and drove ... and then we drove some more! Daughter Victoria (she's 17) popped forward now and then and inquired in a plaintive tone, "Are we there yet??" hee hee (She had proclaimed that very morning that she wanted to hike, to do things, and not just sit in the Jeep and ride. But sit in the Jeep and ride we did.

Still, it was a beautiful place, and the Reservoir, once we arrived, was gorgeous. And she did enjoy kayaking around it, though she exclaimed, "But all I did at the lake was sit in the kayak!" :-D
