Ouray

We were so fortunate to spend the long holiday weekend before school started with great friends in a beautiful town! Ouray, Colorado is a gorgeous mountain town stuck in a little valley in the San Juan Mountain Range. We spent a weekend camping there last year, and fell in love!

This year our dear friends invited us to join them in their cabin - even better!
The boys had their friends to adventure with, a lake to fish in, and Gabe could come play, too!
We spent the better part of two mornings drinking coffee on the front porch - waiting for the moon to set over the mountains, watching wild turkeys wander into the yard only to be chased away merrily by the dog, and listening to the kids laugh and laugh as they built forts and hiked off into the woods! We even made it into town a bit to have lunch, shop a little, and spend a few hours in the hot springs pool!

What a great way to end the summer... now we're really ready for fall!
