Fun times in Hotchkiss

After setting up camp and sizing up the shower line (it turns out that almost 1800 people are on the ride) we rode about 2 miles to the local pool. Imagine your community pool with a mountain in the background. Then we stopped at the dollar store for the one thing we forgot to bring, a pot for cooking oatmeal in the morning. Then it was on to the search for dinner. The first place we tried had inexplicably pared their menu down to 4 items. We ended up having a liesurely and tasty meal at the North Fork Valley Resteraunt. We topped it off with strawberry cheescake and a carmel sunday. Then we headed back to camp to get things organized for tommorow. I spent a good bit of time writing posts and dowsizing photos so they can be sent through the pokey connection I get here. It is just before 10 and we are getting ready to turn in for an early morning tomorrow.
