Our Adventures Through City and Backcountry
Well I would say there’s about a 75% Chance we ACCIDENTALLY joined a cult today. Anyway today the alarm went off at 6:30 the plan was to leave at 7:30 and if there is one thing I have gotten really good at this summer it’s getting ready quick. I usely sleep half a hour later […]
Read More Day 35I’m so content now. I had the first green chile stew of the trip, over a glass on sangria, on the patio of the restaurant as the sun set. We laughed a lot at dinner as Ellie laid out her future plans of building a shack at COhome, eating our food, and never officially moving […]
Read More Day 35: Ghost Ranch and Abiquiu“Summer skies, stars are falling All along the injured coast” Paul Simon Today wasn’t quite what we expected, but it ended nearly perfectly so I have no complaints. We got up early in Cortez and got on the road quickly. We were all a little sad that the HIE seems to be going through a […]
Read More The CoastYesterday we had a pretty relaxing morning and headed to Dolores and walked around a little bit. We stopped at the DinoStore and we all got a shirt. I got a oversized flannel and one issue with this trip is buying clothes because my bag is actually exploding with a surplus of unnecessary clothes. It […]
Read More Mancos and Mesa VerdeThe morning started how every morning should, a hearty breakfast and strong coffee from Absolute Bakery and Cafe. Throw in great company and you’ll hardly remember the poor quality of camping sleep from the night before. With satisfied stomachs the four of us and Ranger Mike, headed to Mesa Verde. Zak picked a hike he’s […]

The last couple hours of the night were the perfect cap on a full day of fun. We started the day slowly once again. I crocheted […]
Read More Listen to the MusicIt’s late, much later than I typically stay up, let alone try to tackle a blog post. We just crawled into tents, after learning so much about the night sky from Ranger Mike. The morning was spent exploring a few of the cute shops in Dolores. We deiscovered the Dino Store, the shop I will […]
Read More Day 33: COhomeI think we were in Salt Lake City last I posted. I usually crave our city days, but had a really hard time adjusting to a city this time. I was anxious to get back to Colorado and hiking. Today we were able to get back on the trails. I think this will go down […]
