Drove to Ouray for lunch - it is my candidate for the prettiest setting of any town in the state. And friendly. And great hiking. Surrounded by mountains on all sides, the town has numerous hikes originating right from town, not the least interesting being the Perimeter Trail. Yup, goes around the town about a thousand feet above it:
And toutou is handling all the mountain driving like a Ferrari....well, OK, maybe more like a good, solid SUV....we're really loving it!
Hit a hot springs just out of town and relaxed there for half an hour....then onto Ridgway State Park for a couple of nights....just ten miles from Ouray - we decided we like the peace and quiet of the park rather than the close quarters of the RV parks in town....but we'll be back to town tomorrow morning for more hiking....set up camp, and relaxed with a pale ale and watched the sun set on the mountains around the park here....tonight, it's chicken curry for dinner, with rice and naan....
