Been staying in-between Cortez, CO and Durango, CO. Made it in to see Mesa Verde today. Very impressive. We're not much for tours, but in order to see on of the largest cliff dwellings, you had to go on one. It was worth it. Checked out a few ruins, enjoyed the incredible fall colors, and met a new friend on the drive out. (see pic below).
We then headed out with the dogs on a very fun mountain bike ride. This area is supposed to be the mountain bike "mecca" of the US, and today we found one of those rides. It is 7 miles from where we are staying, and we plan on going back tomorrow for a longer ride without the dogs.
...........Actually, Ally is pretty much done as far as biking goes. She ditched us after about a half mile, (forcing us to have to make our "short" ride with the dogs even shorter). She just up and turned around and went back to the truck. We got back to the truck a little later, and these people (that saw us leave with both dogs), tell us that when Ally came back, they ended up calling the number on her tag and leaving a message. (that number was to Steve's phone that was in the truck). ANYWAY, she is done. I told her this, and she seemed to be okay with it. :)
That's it for now. More riding this week. Can't even begin to describe the fall colors here. The yellows and reds are unbelievable.
