Time to get ready for summer.

In Pagosa Springs the time between spring break and the arrival of summer tourism season is peroid of reworking businesses. Here the Malt Shoppe is under construction.

The parking area is getting resurfaced and enlarged.

Testing the Waters “testing the gear.”

It was to be a good day for all as this family gets a ride to test the gear after the winter season. Turned out to be a long day for this young lady. She was using the boat as a trampoline and fell in up to her chin. The water was freezing and she [...]

Fishing Good at Echo Lake

I heard a splash and twisted around to see this bird flying away with a fish almost as big as the bird’s body.

Lewis Street teaches History

It is going to take a lot of pavement to cover Lewis Street. Why? When towns were developing in the late 1800s streets were made wide in order to turn large wagon and horse teams around.

Let there be pond!

Now that the snow has melted the Holiday Acrea Wetlands Project work can be seen. This is an improved pond. The work continues on down stream with more pond work and landscaping.

Open for Business, almost!

The new restroom in Yamaguchi Park is almost finished. This fellow found the door locked and the water off. He said he has the water and just needs to get rid of it!

Dakota smiles at the lake shore. Be careful as the edge may be semi solid in the early mornings. Don’t go on the ice!

So cute!

So cute!

Slacklining is distinct from tightrope walking in that the line is not held rigidly taut (although it is still under some tension); it is instead dynamic, stretching and bouncing like a long and narrow trampoline. The line’s [...]

Kayaking Season Begins

WATER’S COLD BUT IT’LL FLOAT YA.

Rescue Dog!

Few dogs are more faithful, intelligent, and willing to put up with more BS than a golden retriever.

Summer Fun just around the corner!
