Sorry Bears

So I have been reading this site for a few weeks now called sanjuanparent.com. I have no idea who mans the site, but I would love to meet her. San Juan Parent does a great job of keeping track of all the family friendly events and activities across Montrose, Ridgway, Silverton, Ouray and Telluride. I think what a value the most, are her blog entries (imagine that!) of what her family or friends family have done in the area. There has been a few things that she writes about that we have done as a family or an event that we went to as well, but it is fantastic to read about the things we have been missing out on.

Keystone Loop is a 3 mile hike that San Juan Parent writes about. We gave it a try with my cousin Tim and his wife Amy, it was the perfect morning hike for our girls. There were fun bridges to cross and mining remains to explore and a beautiful river to follow. The one thing that wasn't written about in the article was the surprise at the end of the hike......



Raspberries!!

Everywhere you looked there were raspberry bushes. It was so perfect, hanging out in Telluride, shaded by gorgeous aspen trees, picking more wild raspberries than we knew what to do with.





We where able to pack out a good chuck of potential bear food and went back to Tim and Amy's for some dark chocolate brownies, fresh whipped cream and our harvest of berries.
