Colorado: Telluride - August 2

Are these little guys too cute or what? They seem to love dogs in Telluride. They even get to ride on the gondolas up to Mountain Village.


Downtown Telluride. The city is surrounded by 14,000' peaks on three sides.

Oklahoma - May 6, 2009

We are one of about five RVs parked at Walmart for the night in Sallisaw, OK. Just met a couple and their unique dog. This dog barks at airplanes and even barked at the space shuttle one night when the couple was still living in California. :-) She has recently appointed herself to watch for things in the rig that might fall as they are driving down the road and when she sees something she barks. Yesterday she saved their computer. Today she saved a kleenex box. :-) This nice couple is on their way to Branson - came from Amarillo. We are on our way to Fritch, TX, a little north of Amarillo.

Ate lunch at the Green Cow Cafe in Greenbriar, AR. It is run by two very nice older ladies. Good food, too.

We had a goodbye breakfast with our good friends at the Rainbow Cafe in Mountain View and were on the road by 9am. We took 66 to 65 to I-40. Won't go that way again, but were happy to have the chance to stop in Leslie for sourdough bread.

We drove the clouds, sprinkles, and fog into sunshine! The first sunshine we'd seen in days.

Doggy Bag

This is what the journaling says in case you can't read it:

Jack and Mary sent us this photo today along with a story that is
so typically Henry:
Jack and Mary left their Whataburger leftovers from breakfast
on the beach in the bag, left Henry and Major in the car, and went
for a walk on the beach. On their return to the car they could see
Major looking at them and then looking at something going on in the
car. What was going on was Henry bouncing back and forth from the
front seat to the back seat. In his attempt to lick every tiny, yummy
morsel out of the bottom of the bag he poked his nose right through
the bag and got himself this hilarious (at least to us) predicament.
We are so glad Jack got this priceless photo before rescuing Henry.
