I love the summer because it means that I have a lot of guests! My friends Kristin and Greg came for the 4th of July weekend. They came in late on Thursday night and we stayed up until midnight just chatting away. On Friday, we went to Paonia with my friend Maggie for the Cherry Days festival. Funny thing is there were no cherries there! There was a beer garden, which was where we spent a lot of the day sitting...
We did get cherries and other sundries at a little orchard store just outside of Paonia called Delicious Orchards. It is a cute little place with a little restaurant, a tasting area for their hard cider, and a lot of other little goodies. We were hoping to go to dinner at the Horsefly Brewpub but they were closed for the 4th, so we ate a really hearty dinner at the Stonehouse. We then went back to my place and found the perfect spot to watch fireworks over Montrose.
Saturday Maggie joined us and we went to Telluride and Ouray. They did the Bridal Veil Falls hike and I shopped in town. We went to Ouray and hiked to Cascade falls. We then did some shopping and sat at an outdoor restaurant before heading back to Montrose. We got our Horsefly Brewpub fix for dinner that night.
Yesterday, we got up and went to the Red Barn for breakfast. I took Kristin and Greg to The Black Canyon and we wandered around the various stops. We were all pretty tired, since every night we got to bed late and our days were filled with lots of stuff to do. They headed home and I headed to bed...for a nap!
