We'll have the usual, thank you!

Buena Vista was its usual wonderful get away. We packed the most marvelous chicken salad sandwiches for a picnic at the top of Wilkerson Pass. Our holiday was made even better by the new and improved facilities in the lodge . The beds were tres comfortable. Bathroom upgrades definitely helped overall. The beautiful steam making its way out of the earth was entertaining to say the least! Still wondering about all those cars rusting away on the banks of the water.........."Clay and I climbed the rickety stairs hoping they would hold up at least one more time and we were not the only adventurers as we witnessed others throughout the morning challenging those stairs . Cori caught up on rest, and Don did the same with his book. Had to get into town to our favorite dinner at Quincys. Oh those pools and riverside delights, we'd take a double helping anytime!

Wish Cori had been feeling better for the trip, but she said the updated rooms were wonderful...

also wish I was there, because I'm starting to lose my mind here. This hotel living would be so much more fun if we had hot springs!

I wish you all were there too, it is something we should plan when you are back in Colorado.

Did you go to K's Dairy Delight? That is one of my favorite places in Buena Vista. They assign you a celebrities name when you place your order and when it is ready they announce "[Insert celebrity name here] your order is ready" . Kind of silly but its something different. I recommend the blueberry shake.

We always go to K's. What a clever place. I am definitely going to try the blueberry shake next time. I am sure I would love it, cause I love blueberry pie, blueberry pancakes, and plain old blueberries fresh picked off the plant. Yummmmmy
