FUN WITH FAMILY

Brenda and Paul returned to Missouri today after spending six days with us at Snowy Peaks. We really appreciated them making the nine hundred mile trek to spend time with us. 

After resting the first evening, we took off for a ride after we got off work on Sunday afternoon.

            Cottonwood Pass

We hadn't gone far down the western side of the mountain until we spotted a moose and her baby. You have to look close, the picture is dark, but it was a moose.

On down the mountain we went to Taylor Lake.

While there we saw the sign for Gunnison and Tin Cup. The decision was made, Tin Cup here we come. Originally called Virginia City, gold was discovered there in 1859. Originally a rough town, now it is a summer home to many and winter home to few.

        Not us, but it is this road.

        Welcome to Tin Cup, CO.

       Wow, that was a long ride.

        Some didn't make it out.

By the time we got back over the Mtn to Buena Vista, it was near bedtime. It was a fun trip with more days to sight see together.


WHEREVER YOU ARE IN YOUR LIFE AND TRAVELS. ENJOY THE JOURNEY.
