As you can see....I have already "slimmed" The Badlands/Black Hills/Sturgus and Mt. Rushmore off the trip (saved for Trip 2018)
Is this one do-able?

You have about 150 threads (only a slight exaggeration - only 13 threads) asking for 'CONCRETE' suggestions for this trip. What else do you need to know?

I changed the trip several times....each trip is a different thread. Places are starting to sell-out because my lack of booking. Now emailing Colorado tourest sites for help. Boy....Don was wrong when he said Vets would be treated better under his watch!?!

Anything is doable if you put your mind to do it. As for for being a vet I suspicious from your other postings that you really are not. So your treatment is about what you should expect for being a troll. And the president is not a friend of the vets either so don't bother to call him.

I was drafted and went to the Army in 06/68. Fort Leonardwood for 2 months....and spent 2 more months there for 94B20 (COOK) school. Then is was off to Ft. Hood Texas for my final 20 months. Don will/would not take my call...I have never regestered/voted...that alone puts me at the bottom of his call list! Being in the Army...I am not surprised that the Generals are also on the "crooked list!"

04/03 06:58CT Just moments ago....Great Sand Dunes has been "tossed out."
Now it's 13:38 and 741 miles. Pretty much "straight shot" from Colorado Springs to Colorado National Monument.
