Summer Vacation

Just north of Pagosa Springs is a place we always visit. The humming birds will land right on your finger if you are patient enough!! A humming bird landed on ou neice and nephews hands!! Snow bunny was a little too busy eating her ice cream!!
This is a shot of main street Silverton. We stayed across the street from here for three nights. A great central location in a small mountain town. Everyone is so nice here.
Gold FEVER!!! The water was freezing cold!! We couldn't get them out of there!!
The inside view of an old mine! Safe? Probably not! Exciting ---oh yah! Creepy? YEP! We were able to go in this one on our four wheel day! Way up in the mountains away from most of the crowds..

Colorado and New Mexico Vacation

We had a wonderful vacation!! We took our neice and nephew along for the adventure...one of the best decisions we have ever made!!! They were great and we had a blast!! Snow bunny loved spending the special time with them, and I know they had a great time also. We visited some of the ancient ruins in Mesa Verde Colorado. So amazing and a wonderful fun time.
We stopped off at the gorge in New Mexico. Really deep and really cool. Nothing like sitting on the edge of the world!! By the way neice is afraid of heights!! Can you say GO GIRL!!!
We checked out a lot of the mountains in southwestern Colorado. This was taken near Pagosa Springs. Nephew couldn't wait to get down there and fish!!
This was taken on our 4 wheeling day. We rented a Jeep and played for one really long day. This was taken on top of the world!!! It was soooo beautiful. We were at approx. 13,500 ...like I said top of the world. I will try to add more pictures in the next few days. It was an excellent trip!!!!
