Mountaineering

We spent a day driving through the mountains and exploring Ridgway and Silverton, two lovely towns with much to photograph (as you'll see).

At the Ridgway Railway Museum.


An extremely old caboose and two somewhat younger girls.

So cute. Can you deny it?


No matter what town we're in, these girls know how to hold down a bench.
