Espanola 2015

We love stopping here before heading into Colorado.  We consider the Abeytas part of our family.  We first met them when we camphost at Big Meadows outside of South Fork, CO.  They asked us over for dinner one night and they have been feeding us ever since. We developed a deep love for these fine family.

We parked in Abeyta’s yard Thursday and they took us to Santa Claran Casino for dinner .

No buffet here – take a look at this prime rib and lobster dinner!  And it wasn’t a little 3-4 oz. tail either….oh, no, that was at least a 6 oz. along with a huge prime rib, baked potato and salad.

 

Friday Birdie fed us pulled pork for dinner after we lounged around all day – for me it is getting use to higher altitudes slowly.

Saturday was a big Mother’s Day celebration with family and their friends.  Teddy and Tim watched over the brisket and two racks of ribs.

    

Carla brought this half gallon of fresh salsa…oh, so good

Add in a big pot of beans, red chili, salad and you have a yummy meal.

Paulo and Tim brought Birdie flowers and even brought me flowers too….so sweet…

 

We had four family dogs all together. Here’s Chaps, Chico and Cinch.  Tim has all the dogs mesmerized holding court for treats.

      

We partied till about 7 p.m. and then we gave in to relaxing at the RV.

Sunday Jim made biscuits and gravy while Birdie added ham, eggs, beans and a fruit salad. 

     

 

 

 

Teddy likes to make a tower of food, putting one thing on top of the other.

 

 

 

 

 

I finally had the whole family in the house at the same time so I was able to take a family photo.

Thank you, dear friends, for your hospitality and love.

Remember, you are loved.
