I spent a week in Flagstaff, AZ. Then a week near Taos, NM.   After that I moved to the Denver CO area.    I finished off the last week in Fishlake Utah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will get around to posting stuff from spots along the way but here are a few photo snippets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
