Ahh! The Magic of It All!

 A trip is always magical!  Doesn’t matter where you travel, you’ll always find something interesting, unique, beautiful!  Our destination to Colorado Rocky Mountains never disappoints!  Although, we have visited here many many times, it never disappoints each time we arrive!

Not often do we eat out on these adventures esprit we have a full equipped kitchen.  We shop the local markets for our meal ideas.  

We visited Dillion farmers market to find smoked salmon, fresh baked sourdough bread, shiitake mushrooms, pork chops, fruits and veggies.  Our meals were simple to prepare so we could enjoy our balcony over looking more delightful scenery.  We plan to leave no leftovers when we depart. 
One night we enjoyed pork chops with mushroom sauce—with the pork remaining, green chili stew was on the menu another night. 
Baked potatoes covered with all the fixings (leftover onions, bacon from breakfast,
