[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3699928, member: 7900"] May the feet of the team heading to Florida take flight and win big at the Championships. May they also all have fun. (Oh, and travel safely if you are driving. Some of those folks back east are nuts.) Now for pictures. In 2008, the wife and I took our 26-foot fifth wheel to Colorado for our vacation. We spent a few days at Eleven Mile State Park west of Colorado Springs off of Highway 24. When we drove through Colorado Springs, the wife called a friend there that we were going to meet up with later, and she told us that there had been a tornado at Eleven Mile State Park the night before. When we checked in, the staff at the park kind of hesitated a bit and then told us that there had been the tornado across the lake. (I think they might have thought that we would want to go somewhere else.) I told them that we were from Oklahoma and we "danced with tornadoes." At any rate, the following picture of a sunset made the stay well worthwhile.

While we were working Alabama this year, one of our road surveys took us to the state line on I-10.
