Rosco and Chriss travels throughout Australia, USA and Canada. Saturday, November 3, 2012. Is an interesting area located in Coachella Valley, a desert nestled between 2 mountain ranges. Aquifers have given the city a supply of water which has turned what would have been a very arid area into a picturesque oasis. Don't judge, everybody was posing for the same shot.

There is a narrow dirt road out of Canon City which took us into the mountains to Cripple Creek. An old mining town. This old Dodge (I think) caught my eye. It looked like it was still registered and in operation.
