I took this photo from our balcony as the sun was going down.
We woke up to the sunrise over the Mittens at Monument Valley. Elevation 5,500 ft. Time: 5:30 am. Didn't even need the alarm, the view woke us all up. Was it worth it? Absolutely!

Stopped by the Trading Post to pick up a few things for the kids, then hit the road at 8:32am. Spotted a coyote from the road on the way outta town - or wait - was that Lucinda? Next stop - Lulu!
The road from Montezuma to Colorado may be the most fun drive so far...felt like we were flying, or driving off-road, but on pavement.
Another Dave original
Stopped for the best breakfast burrito ever at the Silver Bean in Cortez - the owner moved out here from Atlanta.
11:51 am, we enter the San Juan mountains - our home for the next 5 days. I've now driven the subie 2,100 miles and am ready to put the keys away for a few days. Telluride is unbelievable - gorgeous scenery everywhere you look, super-friendly people and a great place to stay (or live). More tomorrow.
