This officer didn't use his turn signal 3 different times, crossed/changed lanes in an intersection, and was typing on his laptop while driving and stopped at 5th street light. Note, I believe it is the law to let other drivers know your intention of changing lanes with a turn signal or hand signal out the window, BOOM! Next, typing on the laptop in the vehicle, REALLY! This is BS for such a service worker that should set a better example when they hand out tickets for public behavior as such! VERY BAD COP IN MY BOOK!

I didn't include the winter because you don't want to drive at night in the middle of no man's land on that long stretch west of Grand Junction. We usually just stay one night, but there are lots of things to do in the area. The Colorado River is nearby, the Dinosaur Museum, off-roading trails, hiking, mountain biking, snow skiing and lots of other things. I was really impressed by Grand Junction's Main Street with all the restaurants and shops. If you stay in Grand Junction try to find a hotel or Airbnb near Main Street. You won't have to drive to go out to lunch or dinner because there are plenty of spots.

Thank God for that because these small businesses truly are what makes a city wonderful. GJ might be a little rough around the edges, but anyone can see the amount of work that's gone into building a diverse community of business, industry, and residence. It's been about 9 years since I've visited GJ, and I was surprised to see the amount of growth. That growth likely means jobs and making a living toward the American dream. A quick real estate search returned several affordable options - I know if I were seeking to live here, I'd like to find something with a view. The plains, the mountains, either one can be found here if you're patient. It's easy to understand why surrounding cities make Grand Junction a regular stop for errands or a short getaway for a meal. It's relatively relaxing and easy to find or drive to anything you're looking for. I'm glad I made the trip. Next time, I'll scope out a nifty restaurant or three.

I was quoted online, and over the phone, and both quotes were over $1,000. My actual registration was $388 and $75 of that was a late fee. I came home a lot less stressed than I felt when I left to go there.
