Long Live Crested Butte (pronounced byoot - for you funnies out there)

Crested Butte is beautiful.
And fun.
And we were so pleased with ourselves that we took advantage of a four-day weekend to make the most of CB.
Liza's highlights of the trip?
hiking

and fishing!!!
Landon's highlight of the trip?
throwing rocks in the river (lucky for us - there were lots of opportunities for that!)

Tyler's highlight?

(or was it teaching the kids how much fun racing sticks down the river can be?)
I loved it all. The funny thing to me was that the locals repeatedly apologized for the weather (mostly overcast - rain came in and out). "Of all the weekends you could've come!" But the forecast in Denver was for rain, too - so what did we have to lose? As we drove home, we saw the huge black cloud in the sky that was home - and we returned home to buckets and buckets of rain. All who stayed in town over the weekend said we missed nothing - and we sure had a BLAST!!!
The proper name for racing sticks is "Pooh Sticks." That you appear not to know that reflects badly on your mother.
ReplyDeleteLooks like so much fun! Great pictures--the one of you and Tyler is really nice. :) Britney
