On the Road to Durango October 2, 2011




We had a leisurely morning since we only had a 40 mile run today. We were supposed to leave at 11:00 am but this group gets nervous and by 10:40 am it was time to roll. We have decided that the navigation systems do not like this part of the country. Some were telling folks to go right at the intersection and some left the correct way and according to the maps we printed out. Four of us went left and three went right. They showed up eventually. Alpen Rose RV Park is really nice, they have a two acre dog run for the dogs to romp and oh boy they really enjoyed that. We have awesome views of gorgeous mountains.


Some of us went to Old Town Durango for lunch at Old Tymers Café. We wondered through the shops and I was able to pick up the tickets for our Silverton Train Ride on Tuesday. A few purchases were made and I hope to get back down there again before we leave.


Cocktail hour was at 5:30 tonight, this has been a relaxing day and a bit slower pace than the last week. Tomorrow is a free day. Not sure what everyone is doing yet, golf may be an option, exploring the area and dinner for the group tomorrow night. Ed and I will spend the afternoon with Dan and Suzie who live here in Durango. They are my niece’s in laws and always love visiting when they come to Sacramento.


Still having a problem posting pictures, we think the Internet at some of these campgrounds have limitations. If I do not get pictures on the blog while on the road, I will post as soon as I get home so please check back..


So until next time….
