The drive up to Frisco, CO

This is our annual summer trip to Colorado to escape Tucson heat. The first stop was Joe & Aggies Café, Holbrook, AZ recommended by Dave and Laura. This Route 66 place did typical grub. It was on the itinerary for motorcycle tours of Route 66. We arrived seconds before a large group of European Harley riders who apparently started from Florida. We got our order in just in time!

First night was in Durango, CO at the downtown Victorian style General Palmer. Not long after checking in the city electricity went out for over three hours. Our downtown dinner plans with Lauve’s Campbells colleague, John Thompson and his wife, Jeaninne were pleasantly replaced by candle light barbeque at their house overlooking the dark city.

The Silverton Train from Durango

Yesterday we finished the trip to Frisco with a pretty drive into the mountains over Wolf Creek and Hoosier passes. Our condo, same one for the last two years, had a surprise for us. We have always had use of the garage to store our bikes. Not this time! The owner decided it wasn’t included so, there was no key to it. Strange enough, the garage wasn’t actually locked – we are using it anyway! Hope someone doesn’t come and lock it with our bikes in it!
