A person wearing an outfit (or item of clothing) that symbolizes your country
A sundial
 #2  Theater -  at Red Rocks
 # 3 the capital building in Cheyenne Wyoming.
 # 4 Airplane -  The Denver Radio Control Airplane Club had a spot in the State Park where they practiced.    They were fun to watch.

 # 4  A B52 bomber on display at the Air Force Academy
 #5  - 2 of the many sunset photos that we took this week.
#7  A funny Sign - This one is only funny if you know that is was taken at the National Center for Atmospheric Research Center in Boulder, CO
We were following the signs to the museum.   This was a little difficult to navigate
#8 A railroad tower in Cheyenne Wyoming.   What caught our eye was that the highway was built around the tower.    Railroad was definitely there first.  
#10   Sitting on the bench and waiting for our horses in Estes Park, CO
#11 A stellar Jay in Rocky Mountain National Park and a snake at Dinosaur Ridge (thankfully not a rattle snake)   Why do I always see the snakes first?   The kids also suggested a horse photo for this one as well


#12  I was having a hard time with this one, so I asked for help.   Nadia found this cloud almost right away. A hummingbird with his beak in a flower.    I totally see it now, but I guess my brain does not work that way.   
#13  A fence - around the horse stable.
#14 The chapel at the Air Force Academy had small strips of stained Glass
#15  A Fire Truck at the Famous Stanley Hotel in Estes Park.   
#16  A windmill
#20  I made Andrew stop at this particular Gas station to ensure I got my dinosaur photo.    As it turned out, we saw dinosaur fossils and bones several times on the trip.
