Road trip part two: Ouray



For the second part of the road trip, we left the dogs with Kent and headed on down to Ouray (pronounced you-ray). In a weird way, it reminds a lot of Homer with its tourist season, small shops, and quirky locals. We stayed at the Black Bear Manor —which is an awesome bed and breakfast — and hung out for three days.

We hiked every day, and then would reward ourselves with some drinks and grub. Our favorite spot was the Ouray Brewery, which had some good beers and food to chow down on. Plus it had an awesome deck:



And here's the random section of the trip: the homemade burro trailer:



We followed it the last 30 miles home, and we were both enthralled with its sleek design. If you need to see a couple more pictures of this modern marvel of engineering, click here.
