Day 6 - Lazy Day

Lazy day!

We started off by making breakfast tacos, Ashleigh did laundry and read a book while I watched movie. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky, so we decided to take a drive around 2PM. We headed into Winter Park, which is currently abandoned due to the off season. There wasn’t much to do, so we ended up driving to Empire, Colorado. The Garmin said it was 8 miles outside of Winter park, but, it was actually about 25 miles down a winding mountain road!

We stopped at an awesome malt shop that Ashleigh recognized and had ice cream and onion rings. The owner was wearing a Waterloo Records t-shirt and had a Kinky Friedman sign on the wall... Turns out he is originally from Houston, but lived in Austin, and was just there visiting family last week. Small world!

It started snowing while we were on the road, so we pulled over to play in it for a few minutes.

It was sunny again by the time we got back to Granby, so Ashleigh and I went for a long walk.

Tomorrow we’re going to Steamboat Springs. Hopefully we’ll have more exciting things to post on the blog tomorrow night. :)
