Well, there have been changes here.
- O’brien’s Pub changed hands and the food is not as good.
- No good breakfast place in town, that we’ve found.
- Historic places that were once open to visit are now posted against entry. I’m pretty sure some dumb ass screwed it up for all of us.
- Roads are now getting wider. This results from people not wanting to get their SUV-mobile dirty or muddy even buy driving through the puddles. IT’S 4 WD PEOPLE, USE IT AS SUCH!
- High speed internet here is not as high speed as I remember. Can’t upload pictures anymore. I’ll add them when I get home.
- Motorcycles! Huge number of bikes here. Maybe now that I own one I’m noticing them, but I just don’t remember this many. Nina either.
Later.
We did some off-roading from Ouray through Animas Forks then into Silverton. Lunch at Handlebars and back to Ouray. On the way out, Nina saw a Harley store in Silverton. I thought she was seeing things, but hung a U anyway and sure enough, Orange and Black Harley sign. The highest Harley store in the US.
Just selling clothing and mostly the lower end stuff, but still original HD wear. No bikes. They’re a “branch store” of the HD in Durango and have the HD blessing.
I am a husband, father, grandfather, friend, business owner, traveller, Harley rider, citizen, patriot, gun owner, politically eclectic person of strange personal habits. I support police, trust no politicians, and can argue any side of an argument just to amuse myself. People love me or hate me and those that are in-between don't know me.
