After School in Telluride








  A week has passed in Telluride and have yet to pull our car out of the driveway, the "Galloping Goose" takes us anywhere we need to go! Jack has taken the free shuttle to street perform playing his guitar  (he's raised $10 so far) and almost daily one of us rides it to town or as a drop off to ski. The boys have been working on their hoop game at the court close by after school and Julie and I have been able to snowshoe checking out the local neighborhood. The average blood pressure reading in town must be at national low, the vibe is as laid back as we have experienced. After school/work we attempt to get outside and take advantage of the 13,500 foot peaks that surround us. The local crowd is overtly friendly and after a week here, we are beginning to understand why.... avg of 300 days of sun helps! We reached out to the elementary school today to see if we could volunteer and have received three offers already. The boys will be heading there soon to work with the kids. W e are loving the "box canyon" of Telluride.

  1. Bus is a big gas saver and sounds really laid back. Gas $4.00/gal in NC. Like Phoenix the sun does make a diference in attitude,big change from Mid West...Michigan winters. Where are the baseball bats and gloves...maybe an occasional football eh? Glad your doing so well and keep the blogs coming! Go Tar Heels, NC State and Michigan State in March madness.
