Long vacation or actual living? Seems like a combination of both lately.
Visit to Mcinnis Canyons and the Monument today. Both close so why not?

Botanical Gardens, Riverfront Bike
We went to the Grand Jct Botanical Gardens which was nicer than I expected. This isn't the best time of year to go but they still had a lot to see. They have a number of turtles and butterflies in an indoor jungle type area. Lots of flowers, cactus plants, and a wide variety of plants in a small room. Outside they have a number of gardens. Desert plants, unique trees, and some Grand Junction history in the form of old farm equipment and an old wagon trailer that a farmer could live in. The first Friday of the month it only costs $1 to enter.
After that we went biking East. We got on C1/2 road from the park area that has the zip line and some man made ponds. This went to 29 for a short distance and then you are back on the riverfront bike path. This stretch is the Corn Lake section. Nice section that is part State Park and some protected land and ponds. Then back West of the Botanical Gardens. Lots of river views and the Connected Lakes section.
