Cortez Colorado and Mesa Verde

Saturday September 6th

We made our way from Glenwood Springs to Cortez via Hwy 133 and McClure Pass. We stayed in Cortez while we visited Mesa Verde, which is not too far away. Today I got my first glimpse of the San Juan Mountains (after 32 years in Colorado????) Cortez is very small town, no Starbucks here!! Although there was a coffee / breakfast place called the Silver Bean, it is a converted old Airstream trailer with a patio out front, Very Cool!!!

We ate dinner at a place called the Dry Dock restaurant..very good food, reasonable prices and on Sunday there was live music, from a Willie Nelson look-alike, OR WAS IT WILLIE??? Seriously, this guy was good and he looked like Willie, sang like Willie...hummmm
