Next stop, Breckenridge Colorado, 2011

After we waived goodbye to Telluride, we travelled over the river, through the woods, a little carsickness from reading Kindle over 10,000ft passes, and quietly landed in Breckenridge. Whew! What a day.

The winds make these cool structures in the snow.

That was pretty much the the whole day. Driving. Snow. Great views. And some minor carsickness. I won’t dwell on that part. I learned my lesson. Figuring out who is the villain of the story is not so important when trying to keep lunch down. Oh, and a quick lunch at Arby’s isn’t worth talking about either. ALTHOUGH…I was pleasantly surprised by their roasted chicken. It wasn’t a huge piece of dried out breast. It was sliced like you get in a deli and had a good flavor.

After that long day, this was the view from where we stayed. I could get used to this.
