Staying Ahead of the Snow // Wings Over the Rockies Air Museum // RV Life Ch 3 Wd 3
RV Life can be a mixture of emotions. We want to stay, we want to see the sights but when the snow is following us we are on the run! We managed to get a small window of time to check out the Wings Over the Rockies #Aerospace Museum in #Denver, #Colorado and it was a great opportunity to have some fun, but we really had to get on out of Denver to get away from the snow! Onward
We also enjoyed a couple of days at the Cherry Creek State Park just outside of Denver and it was soooo great! We highly recommend it.
