TELLURIDE 2008

We left on September 11, 2008. Rich, myself, Mandy and Drew. After a long flight, we met up with Kelly and Nico. All four siblings reunited. Brad has lived in Telluride, CO for about 16 years and never have we all been out to see him together. It was unbelievable. Telluride was hosting its 15th annual Blues and Brews festival. We went out and explored the town Thursday night and then headed to the festival Friday. Saturday morning we woke early and headed to a jeep tour of Tomboy. We braved a narrow road up to the top of the mountains. It was scary. The jeep was, at times, wider than the road. We could look straight down the cliff. It was an old mining town - ever heard of Smugglers Union? Even Rich scooted close to the middle at certain points! Once at the top, Drew proposed to Mandy. None of us knew except Brad. It was so romantic and perfect. We went back to town, picked up some champagne, and head to "Bridal Veil" - waterfalls under which we toasted to new couple! The rest of the weekend was spent at the festival. All in all, one of the best times of our lives! Enjoy a few pics!
