Dirt, rocks, and great food










Lots of activity here, people going in all directions. Fishing, eating, shopping, and hiking.
First, fajita night with a guacamole challenge. Anna versus Katie - with special ingredients & techniques and I believe it was a draw. Both were fabulous! Everyone knows about the avocado seeds keeping the guac from going brown right?
The girls went to investigate the 100 year old miner's cabins on Star Mt. They're falling down more every year which is too bad - so interesting to imagine living then, and how did they manage in the 20 below winters?
Darling doe and her fawn wowed us one afternoon. Hurray Bambi!
The hiking adventure was to the site of a World War II plane crash 67 years ago. Short but straight up,and then there's the straight down, some sliding on their rear, if you know what I mean. I was there but stupid foot has been acting up a bit, so I opted out. I'll go another time...The group said definitely worth going up, a plaque, flags, and many pieces of plane scattered everywhere.
Went to a gas station for lunch. HA - bet I caught your attention with that one. It's Power Stop in Gunnison and the hamburgers are terrific! They use our organic farm's beef for one thing, and have great and unique combinations. Mark & Paul have been before and swore, gas station stop or not, food was great. We all agree completely!
