Exploring the Places No One is Talking About
Keltin and I decided after our hike to Alberta Peak that we were not in the right type of shape to hike a longer trailer at Colorado’s altitude so we decided instead to visit a city that had been calling our name since we arrived: Telluride. We were not expecting the city to be as
Last Sunday Keltin and I got to watch Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone with the wonderful scores of the film performed live by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. The symphony orchestra was fantastic. Music live brings a bit more magic to the movie. Also, there is something wonderful about enjoying a movie with hundreds of
Keltin and I really enjoyed this hike. It begins at Wolf Creek Pass and gains about 1,200 feet of altitude. When starting out on this trail you walk though a lot of beetle kill but there are young trees coming back. Due to extra light the undergrowth was lush and the wild flowers were beautiful.
During our exploration of downtown Pagosa Springs the wind began to really pick up so Keltin and I decided to duck into Riff Raff Brewing for a flight while the weather called down. The staff was really friendly and they were happy to chat with us. This was a quick visit for some good beer.

The drive back from Creede took longer than it typically would have because Keltin and I couldn’t resist stopping and taking some pictures. We stopped once at a train bridge that spans the Rio Grande. It was just magical and beautiful with a cool breeze coming off the water. The second place was in South
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope that your day is wonderful and full of good food and happy family. I’m busing baking pumpkin and pecan pies! I feel like I have been cooking of weeks though: my company potluck, Keltin’s company potluck and then prepping for the big meal today. It is worth it though –
After visiting Chimney Rock and lunch at Pagosa Brewing we made our way up to Creede for the rest of the day to explore the little mountain town. Our visit to Creede was similar to that of Silverton. We were there late in the season, there were few tourists, and the days were getting cooler.
