On Saturday, we took an adventurous family trip which included one flat tire, one herd of sheep, 40 lbs of fresh cherries, and the biggest bull any of us had ever seen. We drove over to the great little town of Paonia, CO to pick some cherries. While taking the short-cut (of course), we drove by this herd of sheep guarded only by this faithful dog.
Shortly thereafter, we busted a tire. After a relatively quick fix, we continued on and had a near perfect day of picnicking and cherry picking (and grocery shopping and new tire purchasing).
Silas found this great old truck (you know I'm a sucker for old trucks). He said, "Momma sit in back and I'll give you a ride."
Christian and I both thought how we'd like to live somewhere closer to orchards and green things. Lake City is soooo green, uh, for about three months.

Those are beautiful- and Lake City looks like its in a beautiful valley! How fun to get to shout "down with the king"! So glad to see your pretty babies online!
sweet jalopy. be careful with 40lbs of cherries or, you know, organic fertilizer.
oh yeah. where's the bull?
it was a bull elk that ran in front of the car. sure glad i didn't hit that one....the honda would not have triumphed. it was a 6 by 7 or maybe a 7 by 7...and in velvet, it was enormous, sorry no photo.
