Visitor From Across The Pond

We just spent a delightful week with Karen and Kaivon Mortazavi and Kaivon's nephew, Timothy, from the UK. They had planned on visiting northern CA but with the ongoing threat of wildfires, they decided to visit SW CO and show Timothy all the sights. They were with us for a day in Telluride before they headed to Moab/Arches National Park, Mesa Verde National Park and the train from Durango to Silverton. Back with us they rafted the San Miguel River (usually the rafting ends by early July but with the snowfall at 140% of normal snowpack, the river was still running!) We visited Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park on their last day (see a theme here???) and more stargazing at night (everyone was able to spot multiple shooting stars over the course of the week and Mike got the telescope out for a bit more detail). Unfortunately reality returned and they flew home to Dallas but Paige and the boys arrive tomorrow so more fun times ahead!
