I drove slowly, stopping by the curb when I could, along Third Avenue, my usual route home from points south.
The huge old trees are interspersed with newer ones.

Barbara, thanks for this Durango tour, these are lovely home and what a beautiful church!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting the "treasures!"
DeleteIt’s a very attractive and appealing area.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping to eventually have walks along the boulevard...oh, did I tell you it has a wonderful island in the middle with big old trees!
DeleteThere's obviously some very nice old architecture in Durango. These are great photos!
ReplyDeleteThe owners of the mines must have needed a nice place to live, and in between the fine old homes (brick/stone) are smaller frame ones...kind of reminds me of Asheville. Now there are tourists perched on the heights...reminds me also of the mountains around Black Mountain.
