It's Fruita Time (aka mud season here)





On Monday Tim, the dogs, and I headed westward and found ourselves at the Kokopelli trailhead. Dry trails and warm weather = just what the doctor ordered. We had a total blast and I must say, I rode better than maybe I ever have. Whether it's the spin class or the fact that I may finally be acclimated to the altitude, something was going in my favor. We rode Rustler's Loop, then Mary's Loop, and then the next day hit up the 18 road trails. Zippety Do Dah, Kessler's Run, etc...wonderful!!!! I had fun, Tim had fun, the dogs had fun. What more could you ask?! Perhaps great margaritas at our favorite Mexican restaurant?! Yep, that helped. And the nice jacuzzi suite at La Quinta (Spanish for dog-friendly waffle house) didn't hurt either. Anyhoo, here are a coulple of Fruita pics. Enjoy the warm weather oozing from these shots. Notice that there are very few pics of the actual single track trails. Now that I don't have to stop every few moments to catch my breath, the photo ops seem fewer and farther between.


A few signs that you'll only see in Fruita...
