Day 45, Picture Perfect

Telluride just may be the most idyllic mountain town to live in. Sunshine (well, for us anyway!), snow, cute shops, good restaurants, steep skiing, mountain biking, pink cruiser bikes parked along the streets, what more could mountain girls ask for?

Lazing around this gorgeous town on a bright, sunny day was the best medicine we could have asked for on this rest day.


And what isn't a great day when new skis for a certain babe member were purchased??? This babe in question even bought the exact same skis that the other babe had already purchased at the end of the season last year...as if we needed more things in common...! Watch for the two babes on bikes to morph into the two (matching) babes on skis come December.

Jack DC will be happy to know that a bar made especially for him is on Main Street here in Telluride. One co-owner of Brown Dog Pizza played football at Michigan and is also an avid Lions and Tigers fan, and the other co-owner comes from New England and is a Pats/Sox fan, and the bar is decorated with memorabilia from all of these important teams. Tom Brady signed a Patriots jersey hanging in the bar "To Brown Dog Pizza, GO BLUE!" Though one babe in particular is mourning the loss of Tommy, perhaps Belichick can save the season after all...but alas, Jack, there seems to be no hope for Michigan this season. There's always next year!

Our two-person team is headed up Lizard Head Pass tomorrow for our last climb in the Rockies. We're getting closer to Utah--will we resist the pull north towards Park City? Stay tuned.
