In September, 2005, Periwinkle Dynamo Sue accompanied us (Larry and Val) on a trip to southwestern Colorado. At almost 2 years of age, she had not yet seen much of the United States and had been pestering us to take her somewhere more exotic than central Texas. Since she enjoys cool temperatures, hikes, and climbing on rocks, Colorado seemed a perfect destination. The trip more than lived up to expectations.
