FIRST DAY OFF in 10 weeks for eric!!!

So Wednesday Eric finally got a full day off for the first time in 10 weeks. He just wanted to get away from the ranch and see some scenery. So we took a drive to Silverton, co which was stinkin amazing. But however red mountain pass was SCARY!!!!!!!!! Very narrow, sharp curves and only one guard rail and it was beat up bad. I can see why it is know as one of the deadliest drives. But I will say the weather was awesome and the scenery breathtaking is an understatement. From there we drove back and went up to Telluride. What an awesome little town. It has such beauty and atmosphere. I have to say I thought it would be extremely expensive and uppity but really found it to be nice. We also took the free gondola up to mountain village which is awesome but Eric did not find it beautiful or amusing he wanted out!!! Poor Cowboy guess he likes horses. He said if he was meant to fly he would have been born with wings:) Silly cowboy!!! But it was just awesome to get out and enjoy some time together in this awesome state. We also took little duke and he was VERY popular:) Well here are some pics.

drive towards Silverton, CO.

ya that is the edge of the road right out my window and that is going towards the bottom

looking back towards home and see the road on the side of the mountain to the right. It is built just on the side of the mountain no much room.

sooooooo stunning!!!

Me and Duke on the streets of Telluride

They had these everywhere but he wanted nothing to do with it!!! I would never have left him there but cute pic!!
