What a TRIP! Get ready for lots of pictures! (none of which do this place justice)
Morgan, Emery and I, along with Matt (my brother who works with Morgan), Courtney (his wifey,) and their baby Makenzie all got to go on a "business trip" to Ouray Colorado. Its a tiny little tourist town just north of Dorango. Morgan and Matt put up a big solar system for a family friend of ours who is building a cabin up there in some of the most beautiful country I've ever seen.
***Our pictures are good but if you wanna see what this place is really like then google "Ouray Colorado" and you'll get a better idea of where we were. ;)
We were there from the 17th of May till Friday the 22nd...(not long enough) The boys worked all day the first three days while us girls walked up and down Main St and window shopped...We went to the little grocery store, sat in the little coffee shop and drank our diet Pepsis, took some pictures, and enjoyed the scenery...We stayed in a little two bedroom, two bath condo with a full kitchen so we were able to cook our meals which made us feel right at home!
The weather was glorious...it never got over 70ish degrees and rained every afternoon...Our condo had a RAGING river flowing right behind it so we slept with the windows open so we could hear it all night long...(sigh....) It was so nice....
So here's some pics!

My cool red bench in front of an even cooler teal shop...
There's a waterfall coming out of my head!
Lots of raging rivers!
On the day the boys didn't have to work, we went up to the cabin with them and explored!
Ouray, back in its hay-day, was a big mining town. This is an OLD bunk house where all the miners lived...I'd say its in pretty dang good condition considering its age and the harsh weather its endured....
Make this picture big and take a look at the date....
This is called Box Canyon Falls
