Colorado Route 71 runs north-south in the High Plains from southern Colorado into the Nebraska panhandle. I drove about 50 miles of the highway. It was mostly rangeland and ranches. The ground looked really dry so I took a short break to water the plants at the Pawnee National Grassland. As with Alaska last year, there are many more photos on Flickr.
Weird Telephone Messages: There were three messages on my answering machine when I got home last night. All three were a recorded voice asking for someone named Roberto. I am not Roberto.
The phone rang this evening.
A recorded voice told me it was looking for Roberto. The recorded voice gave me instructions. If I was Roberto I was to press "1". If Roberto was home but needed to be fetched I should press "2". If this was Roberto's number but Roberto was not around I was told to press "3". If the recorded voice reached the wrong number I should press "4". Not wanting to get more phone calls for Roberto I pressed "4". The recorded voice told me to please stand by while I was transferred to a real person. Then I was put on hold. After about ten seconds I began to sense that this was some sort of scam so I hung up.
Has anyone else had this happen to them?
Yes, I had the same call with a different name (incoherent) and different options.
