san luis valley

Snuck out for a long weekend in the van, a good thing since we just got hit with yet another round of big snow.

The usual Friday post-work quick drive to Florence Brewing and Oil Well Flats.  I wanted to get in a long run but the trails were muddy, so I did a road run from OWF down to the Riverwalk trail in Canon, then over to Skyline Drive.  Solid 15+ miler. 

On Saturday it was off to Penitente Canyon, exploring another part of the San Luis Valley.  Great place, and it allowed us to grab an early dinner at Three Barrel Brewing.  Loved the area and we will be back, probably to climb. 


$100 did her long run on Sunday, and I spent that time hiking with the dog.  After that we headed over to Crestone.  Then the van's first trip to the UFO watchtower. 




Spent Sun night at the Sand Dunes Swimming Pool, which is becoming a favorite of ours.  Up early Monday to make the trek back home to COS.  Very quick trip but we had a blast.
