Today we went to Starbucks, Wal-mart, and Ouray, in order of significance. The former two are very exciting when you live over an hour from them. Ouray, though three times as far away, was not as exponentially excited. It was a fun, quaint little tourist trap, and the scenery is beautifully, but I'm not sure the town itself deserves the moniker "America's Switzerland." It is surrounded by mountains, which all made us a little claustrophobic, but I'm still holding out to see the real thing someday.
It was definitely a fun day, though. We had a great van to spend 6+ hours together, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. The trees were mostly yellows and golds, which made us appreciate our own reds and oranges around the lodge that much more. We ended the evening with a meal at Applebee's which was amazing because I got chips and queso and quesadillas. It was pretty amazing...
