Kelsey & Josh Come to Colorado!!

A couple of months ago one of my best friends (Kelsey) called and informed me that she'd be visiting Durango, CO on October! I was so excited to see her =) Her and her boyfriend, Josh, were coming to town to participate in a horse training show, so I went down on Monday after the show was over to spend a few days with them. During my long trek down to Durango, which totaled about 6.5 hours, I saw this:


Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that is an Elk head sticking out of a Hummer!! Just driving along and stopping at a gas station on the highway....

While I waited for them to get back into town, I went to this park and took some pictures. This is the Animas River...









Kelsey and I standing at the top of Ft. Lewis College.... I loved going to UF, but I think I maybe should've gone here ;)


Old fashioned phone booths at Diamond Belle Saloon =) 

 











 Where do you see phone books anymore?





















I met an awesome lady named Kim who lives with this view =)




And for Josh, I have a picture of a Prairie Dog... please don't shoot your screen ;)

Kim took us riding in New Mexico!! This is the horse that I rode, Taco =) 


He is about 18 and spent most of his life as a trail horse in the mountains. He was a pleasure to ride =) 

Kelsey on Harley...


This is Kim on the left. She was a great tour guide =) 


This is Farmington Lake in Farmington, New Mexico...


Taco liked to take in the sights, so we spent a lot of time in the back =)


Beautiful Cottonwoods down by the lake =)




I took more time on the way back to take pictures of the leaves...


Among other things =)  

The Spanish Peaks on the way home =)



I had so much fun on my trip to Durango and am so happy that Kelsey and Josh were able to come to visit!! I hope they will be in Denver in the spring ;)

We went hiking yesterday at Jefferson County Open Space, so I will post about it next week!
