Visit to Creede

Every year we go up to Creede to visit the site where Jim’s parent’s ashes are scattered.  So last Friday we took that drive and we sure picked a beautiful day to do it.

Narrow road up Bachelor Loop-yes, it’s two way traffic on that itty-bitty road!

Going back to Alamosa we decided to stop and look at Beaver Creek Reservoir to see how low the water level was this year.

The drive up is precarious…those trees are 340-50 feet tall down the side of the cliffs

Water has dropped about 20-30 feet

On the way out of town we stopped to see Rich

CIMG2683 and Terri Deacon, great buddies and managers of the South Fork Campground.  We caught them racking up leaves in preparation to opening May 1st.

Our arrival necessitated a break and a chat.
