Day 26: Final Destination- Ouray, Colerado

Happy Birthday Mom!! We had such a nice day, starting off with a lovely breakfast at our bed and breakfast. We walked to Cascade Falls, and right behind us we heard someone walking, we turned around, and there was a BEAR! It was the craziest feeling! We also drove up this steep, narrow, gravel road up a 1000 ft. mountain, getting a little scared when we would see crosses on the edge of the mountain where people had fallen off and died. We drove the "Million Dollar Highway" and had a nice lunch in Silverton. Then, we strolled the main street of Ouray, had a nap, and went to a clothing optional Hot spring pool. There were 6 "ponds" filled with mineral hot springs. It was incredible how hot some of them were, for not being heated up!! It was so fun. We had a nice b-day dinner, and a great evening!

  1. Happy Birthday Ruth! I'm sure that's what the bear wanted to say too! What a memorable birthday. Sounds like you are having a fabulous time. Amazing pictures. What a mission to cover so much - no surprise with you ambitious ladies leading the way!
