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
