July 8th: CORKSCREW

Gary, Suzanne, Shelby & Brook; Loy & Cheryl; and we drove Corkscrew today.  It looked a lot different than it did the last time we were there -- most of the snow has melted.  We ended up at the Mexican Restaurant in Ouray (surprise, surprise).  The most interesting thing about today's trail for me was Gary's dog, Kela.  He let her out at the top of the pass and she led the group back to the highway - and not straight down the trail.  She was back and forth across the road, up the mountain, down the mountain, thru the snow, thru the forest, etc.  She would have kept going if Gary had not made her get back into the Jeep.  We all stopped in to the Velvet Lounge to listen to Mike sing & play guitar.  We wrapped up the night with Larry, Linda & Brett (Young Bull) in their RV.  They arrived tonight.
