July 26 A Drive to Crested Butte and the Mountains


 

It was once again a very nice morning. We sat outside by the fire watching the hummingbirds and chipmunks. Susans allergies were bothering her again but we decided to take a drive up to Crested Butte. On the way up there was a road that went up to a lake in the mountains which had several campgrounds along the way. The road ran beside the Taylor river. It was about 26 miles to Taylor Reservoir. We found two campgrounds we really liked and would stay at. We went on to Crested Butte. It’s a typical ski resort town which is crowded even in the summer. Just too many people for me. We headed back to Gunnison. We ate at a little pizza place which had some of the best pizza I have eaten. We had plenty left over to take home. We sat out for just a little while in the evening until we got rain showers. Just stayed in the rest of the night.
