Since everyone was off for Labor Day, we decided we should go up to Pagosa Springs, CO and check out some land so we can buy some and build a cabin. . . . someday. But hopefully not too far away. We'd like to have it done before the kids are all gone so they can enjoy it and we can all make some fun memories together before they leave! This trip was mostly familiarizing ourselves with the options in our price range, and dreaming. :)
We stayed in Farmington, NM on Sunday night, because we had a free hotel night there. Arthur found a cool place for us to have a picnic dinner, and go for a walk afterward along the Animas river. It was perfect! The weather was gorgeous, and the sunlight that time of day is my favorite because it's so rich and golden.
Monday morning, we drove over to beautiful Pagosa Springs, and spent the morning looking at a lot of different spots. The kids were great for the most part. We went out to lunch, and then went for a short hike up to this little waterfall called Treasure Falls. There is a fun legend about some french treasure that was hidden somewhere around this area, and has never been found! The kids were looking in hollow logs and wondering if it was in the bottom of the pool at the base of the waterfall.
Just think, if we found that treasure, we could BUY SOME LAND!!! Dallin said if we were a dollar short, he would spot us the cash. Thanks Dallin!

I could spot you another dollar if you're short by two. . . Hey, you've got a lot of friends - I bet you could come up with a chunk of change if you played your cards right!
