Bluegrass Festival underway...

It's been a couple of days since we last posted. The boys are settling in to camp. In fact, they are coming back from their first overnight adventure today. We can't wait to hear how it went and if they survived the night okay. I'm sure we'll have a full report for everyone tomorrow.

People are streaming into town this morning as the Bluegrass Festival gets under way today. The town is likely to be packed over the next few days, so it's a good thing we secured our parking rights while we could!

It's been fairly warm this week out here. The afternoons have been topping out around the high-70s. Today has been cool as we have a chance for rain and some good cloud cover. Di and I have been spending our mornings with little mini-hikes/walks. Yesterday we got a little adventurous and made our way down the Telluride Trail from Mt. Sophia after riding the gondola up to the station there. Poor little Molly was good about enduring the descent in her jog-stroller. (We likely don't do that trek again with her!) The picture below is from the top of the mountain looking out over Mountain Village.

I met a guy on the gondola one day while heading over to Mountain Village. He said he was commuting to work. ah, the life....

It is amazing that a) almost everything here is walk-able and b) you can actually commute for free using the gondolas. The boys are experts at riding these now and their camp even used them as transportation to get to the nature center.
