Sunday 29 Jul 2018 – Frisco

Getting settled-in. Hung out. Walked into town dodging showers. Dinner at home. Frisco is pretty much as we left it last year. Our little VRBO (new for us this year) is right on the Ten Mile Creek – the deck overlooks the creek 15 ft away. The two bedrooms are compact, but adequate. Master has en suite, the second across from the kitchen.

Road to Breckenridge for coffee. There have been many bike path improvements since last year. It was very windy on the way back, but the downhill made it OK. Lake Dillon looks at least 3 ft lower than normal. Went to see “Mission Impossible – Fallout.” It was as expected and a nice job by Tom Cruise.

Road to Keystone. Coffee and bun back in Frisco at The Butter Horn – yum!

We road around Lake Dillon and over Swan Mountain. It was shorter than we normally ride, but more climbing so it was a nice workout – 22 miles.

Had dinner at our favorite happy hour type place in Frisco – Greco Pastaria.

I road up to Vail Pass through Copper Mountain. It looked like there was more beaver activity along the Ten Mile Creek than before. A herd of mountain goats crossed the path between Frisco and Copper Mountain. I missed the bulk of the crazy Vail Pass downhill cruisers. The ones I did encounter were very safety conscious.

Lauve did a walk through town and started the meal prep for the visit of John and Jeaninne, our Durango friends.
