Today was very cool for me. We started with a pancake breakfast at Kelly’s. She makes an awesome pancake btw. Then we headed off for Mesa Verde. 
I’ve always been fascinated by the cliff dwellings and the disappearance of the people that lived in them. Turns out it didn’t happen as quickly as I thought, but it did happen fairly fast. Over a generation or two they just left all of these elaborate villages they built in the cliffs. Theories for their disappearance range from draught to ritualistic cannibalism decimating the population. We’ll never know as they left no written records, but it is fun to speculate and create stories based on it. 
After that we went to an awesome honey store called Honeywell. Very cool shop with all kinds of flavored honeys. We got a bottle of honey wine which I’d never heard of before and a couple bottles of honey.
Killing time before going to supper we took Blla for a little walk and went to a local drive through ecoffee shop called Durango Joe’s. 
Last thing of the day we had supper with Kelly and her boyfriend Steve. Gave him the once and he seems to be a really nice guy. Bit of a smart ass which means he fits in perfectly with all of us. Tomorrow we’re going to explore downtown Durango. Thanks for reading!
