So the other week my family decided, what the hell, none of us work, we're gonna take a vacation out west and just wing it. Main destination to be San Diego where we'll just be beach bums for a few weeks and relax, but were driving so the possibilities are endless.
We left from chicago early this morning and after a long 12+ hours were finally in Colorado, which will be our first stop. Tonight well end up in Denver just to check out the city (don't even suggest weed, I have to take a drug test for work soon after I get back (fuck me right)). Tomorrow or maybe the next day we'll be hitting the Rocky mountains national park to do some hiking and exploring, maybe some ziplining or white water rafting if we can find it. From there it's another long haul to the coast, maybe a quick stop in Vegas, but that's about all we've got planned. After some time on the beach we'll probably head up to Frisco at the advice of my grandfather who clearly has fond memories about the place (total hippie )
But anyway, throw me some suggestions of anything to see or do along the way. Like I said, we've got no solid plans, no set time to return, all our previous vacations have been too amusement parks like universal, disney, but this time were just taking it easy. Also, I turned 18 a few months ago so it's likely the last vacation my parents are going to be trading me along with, so I want to make it count!
What to see in this open country?!

Golden is a really historic city not too far from Denver. I love it there, not to mention golden/morrison is where red rocks is and it is gorgeous. From there there are tons of other things you can do, if you're into gambling there is a lot of casinos about an hour or 2 from golden in Blackhawk
I would spend a good chunk of time walking around downtown denver and talking to people, it is pretty cool there and there is a lot of art (the denver art museum is right in the heart of Denver)
There are usually little street festivals and parties going on downtown, and 16th street mall is a popular attraction I would recommend you check out. Lots of culture and good eats there.
If you're into pizza and want to go to some place cool, the Mellow Mushroom has some pretty decent pies and a psychedelic theme. Lots of awesome people go there.
Aside from that, I would really just look around at what parks and shit you like most. There is a lot to do here
