RV Family Road Trip through Colorado

There's still time before the snows hit to point your RV toward Colorado for a most excellent family adventure. From camping in the Rocky Mountains to digging for dinosaur bones & climbing into cool cliff dwellings at the Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado will go down in your family book of memorable trips as one of the best.

Before we go further, here are some RV places you should know about:

* Rent your RV in Denver through Nolan's' RV Rentals.
* If you own your RV, Mattas Marine & RV, an RV supply & service store in Grand Junction might come in handy.
* Enjoy the hot springs at the Joyful Journey Hot Springs Spa in Alamosa.
* Many hotels, like the Royal Gorge Jellystone Park Camp Resort in Canon City or the Heron Lake RV Park in Fort Collins have many facilities available to you during your stay there, including laundry room, playground, picnic areas, pools and children's activity programs.
* Otherwise, head for the campgrounds dotting Colorado & park your RV amongst the trees!

Colorado has more than 500 mountain peaks throughout the state. The highest point of the state (and the entire Rocky Mountains for that matter) is Mt. Elbert which has an elevation of 14,440 feet. Veer east from the southern Rocky Mountains and you'll find the Colorado Eastern Plains. These plains are a section of the Great Plains within Colorado with elevation ranges of more than 3000 feet to 6562 feet. The lands are used primarily for dry land farming or ranching, though you'll find occasional irrigation farming. The drive to the west takes you to some notable peaks like Longs Peak, Mount Evans, Pikes Peak and the Spanish Peaks.

Continue to the interior of the Rocky Mountains and you'll see several large parks. One of which is the North Park, east of the Continental Divide. The North Park is a high basin that surrounds a wide valley in Jackson County. In its vicinity are the waters of the North Platte River, Michigan River, Illinois River and Canadian River. On the west side of the Continental Divide is the Middle Park, located in the Grand County. Then there's South Park, with the South Platte River as its water source.

Driving west to east in Colorado allows your family to see the state's desert-like basins, alpine mountains and the vast Great Plains. You will also get to see Pike's Peak, the mountain in the front range of the Rocky Mountains, and just 10 miles from here is the Colorado Springs.

Be sure to drive by Denver, the capital and the most populous city in Colorado. Take a stop and enjoy its parks and gardens. If you have time, seize the opportunity to visit the Forney Transportation Museum where your family will get to see hundreds of cars and other modes of transportation.

The Denver Merchandise Mart is also worth a stop. Your kids will love to join in the Denver Kids Expo. Admission to this expo is just $9 for adults and kids are free of charge...and parking is also free!

Your family will enjoy more scenic drives near Denver - Golden, Boulder and Fort Collins. The drive from Golden to Boulder via Highway 93 will thrill the kids with all its twists and turns.

Nearly every city your travel through will offer a fun kid-oriented activity. From kid-friendly activities like the Butterfly Pavilion and Insect Center in Westminster, or the Collage Children's Museum in Boulder, to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs, your RV Road Trip will take you from one adventure to another.

Is this a alright gaming cp?

Hp_pavilion a6645f verde special edition desktop. It has a 500gb hard drive. 5gb of RAM 2.50ghz speed. And its a AMD Athlon 64 X2 4850e processor. And a NVIDIA GeForce 6150 SE graphics card 128 dedicated graphics memory. I know the graphics card sucks but if i put a PCIe ATI Radeon HD 2400 pro 256mb graphics card will it run games good. PS i will prob play World of warcraft the most and maybe Cod4 here and there . Thanks.

Well, that is OK. Your CPU is a little but below average, and that 5GB of RAM is not as good as you think. HP always fill all the DIMMs, which is bad. So your 5GB is really 2X2GB and 2X512MB. That means that you're running at T2 command, not the superior T1 command. And, you can only access 4GB at a time depending on which slot your RAM is in. Go into your PC, while it is off, and put the two 2048MB(2GB) sticks into the same colored slots. This will enable dual channel use with your best sticks. Then, take out the other two. They are a waste. That is what I had to do with my HP. Oh, and your video card upgrade would be a waste. It wouldn't last very long. Get a 9800GT or 3870 minimum. And make sure your power supply is around 500W for that new video card.
