Anniversary Cruise

We celebrated our 22nd anniversary on May 31st. Jamie had a playdate at the Astalos' and we took a 300 mile motocycle trip through some of Colorado's finest. We left Alamosa, heading west on Highway 160 to South Fork. Then on to Creede, Lake City, Montrose, Saguache and back to Alamosa. It was a little breezy but otherwise a perfect day. The entire loop took us longer than we thought it would so we were a couple of hours late in picking Jamie up. Thanks to the Astalos' family for understanding! I had a blast snapping photos from the back of the bike as we traveled.
