New Mexico/Colorado

Another Holiday, another camping trip with family.  This time we spent time with Kevin's family.  The trip was broken up into three segments.

We've Been Hit
On our way to Albuquerque

First we spent time in Albuquerque, New Mexico with Kevin's parents.  We traveled out on a Saturday and stayed through Wednesday.  We worked remotely from their house.  We decided to do our own little tour of the Breaking Bad filming locations in town.  In addition we did the Lane family fourth of July tradition of having a BBQ and eating homemade ice cream.

The next segment of the journey was a camping trip to Breckenridge, Colorado with Kevin's sister and her family.   We stayed at a campground right near Dillon Lake.  Colorado was beautiful, very green with lots of mountains.  We watched the Fourth of July parade with the kids, then we rode the gondola up the mountain.  Kevin and I stayed up there and went on the Alpine slide and had lunch at the Ski Hill Grill.  That night we watched fireworks over Dillon Lake.

The final segment of the trip was an overnight stay in Telluride, Colorado.  We stayed at the Matterhorn Campground, which is right outside Telluride.  After setting up camp, we went into town for some shopping and dinner.  It's monsoon season there, so we were hit with afternoon thunderstorms. We walked around in the rain, and ended up eating at a yummy restaurant called Brown Dog Pizza.  There's just something about a steaming hot slice of pizza when it's cold and rainy outside!

The next morning we caught the gondola from the town of Mountain Village and rode it into Telluride.  We ate breakfast at Maggie's Bakery, and then headed back to Mountain Village.  I really love that little town, I would love to stay in one of the lodges there sometime, although I'm not sure we could afford it!  The town is filled with huge mansions, it's obviously a playground for the rich!

We hope you had a fabulous Independence Day!  You can see more pictures HERE.  Oh, and I remembered (mostly) to video on the trip, so you can catch the trip vlog below if you're interested.
