What a change in the San Juan Skyway drive from three months ago! The weather was glorious and we enjoyed sunshine and all of the pleasures of spring in Colorado. The mountains were still snow capped but the aspens were leafed out in most places and a sprinkling of wildlife and wildflowers surprised us along the way. We were pleased with photo opportunities at every turn and again a few side road trips to catch something special. Our overnight at Ouray included a dip in the hot springs at The Wiesbaden and breakfast at our favorite eatery, The Backstreet Bagel. Many travelers take the San Juan Skyway in one day. We do the trip in two days, which includes stopping to distribute the Arts Perspective magazine as we go. With all this roadway and the communities along the way have to offer, it could easily be expanded into three days or. . a week. And for photographers, the opportunities are almost unlimited. . .sf

OK, well this is another place I have to go! I'd never heard of it till now! And if that photo is your breakfast, I for sure will stop there to eat!
Hi Cathy- I didn't get the best of the photos posted here. Ran out of time to upload.The hot springs was great and this breakfast spot is a must do when we travel the San Juan Skyway. It is a beautiful drive. There are some really scarey mountain roads off of the main road that can take you even more special places!
