What a trip!

The Town of Telluride, Colorado


Cowboys at the red light in Durango, Colorado


The Durango and Silverton Railroad


Todd and Tonya in the San Juan National Forest



I can't even describe what a wonderful time we had in Colorado. It is so beautiful there. A few quick highlights were snowboarding in Telluride, a massage at a lavish resort called The Spa at the Peaks, dinner at Allreds (at 10,500 feet on the side of a mountain, which you must ride a gondola to because there is no other access) and the train ride through the San Juan Mountains on the Durango and Silverton Railroad. We also saw some cowboys herding cows down the middle of the road in Delores, Colorado. But the best was when we were walking on Main Street in Durango, Colorado and six cowboys were riding their horses down the street. They came to the red light, stopped, and started riding again when it turned green. It was awesome! Where else can you see that????????

I missed the kids while we were gone, but I wasn't ready to come back home. I could stay in Colorado forever!!

I must give a big thank you to Nana, Grandma, and Papa. Nana came and spent a few days here and then Grandma and Papa came and spent the last few. Our wonderful trip wouldn't have been possible without their willingness to take care of the kids for us.
